Information on the upcoming Xbox Live Arcade and PC game titled State of Decay. Developed by Undead Labs.
What does it mean?
I´d played both State of Decay games and I can safely say that this teaser image has nothing to do with it.
New Next Gen IP? O.o
Why are they teasing a new game when state of decay isn’t even close to being released?? Let’s not pull a Bethesda and insomniac
Please focus on state of decay 3.. I’ve been waiting patiently lol
One of the comments is quite interesting:
Asked deepseek again with New images **"State of Decay 3: TEMPEST"**
(or "WINDS" / "STORM")
featuring:
**A survival system with up to 8 survivors** in a dynamic environment (floods, winds, resource scarcity).
### Key Elements Explained:
1. **"TEMPEST" / "STORM"**
→ From the repeated character **风 (fēng) - "wind"**, implying extreme weather as a core mechanic.
2. **Up to 8 survivors**
→ From **八 (bā) - "eight"** + **人多 (rén duō) - "many people"**, suggesting squad size limits.
3. **Dynamic Environment**
→ References to **水 (shuǐ) - "water"** (floods) and **风 (fēng)** (storms) signal environmental threats.
4. **Resource Struggle**
→ **米 (mǐ) - "rice"** and **木 (mù) - "wood"** hint at survival mechanics (food, building).
While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.
Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela
They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.
Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.
I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.
Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.
Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.
"Today we are excited to announce that the Undead Labs Studio Head and Founder, Jeff Strain, is launching an exciting new initiative."
Great to see that all of Microsoft's new studios are seeing growth now that they are a part of Xbox Game Studios.
A studio not headquatered in Washington or California? I..I need to sit down..
Now that the acquisition has slowed down, it all about heavily investing in the studios. We already saw great talent reaching Obsidian, Playground games. the initiative and the Inxile. Ninja theory in the midst of building a new studio in Cambridge and now undead labs are starting a new one.
The only studio that has been under the radar is Compulsion games.
Release date is all we need,i hope its as good as it sounds,ime really looking forward to this and i hope a day z come on next gen
looking forward to this when gets released finally on PC
