Rumour has it the game could make an appearance soon.
Late last week, a certain Jez Corden tweet started to spread around like wildfire - a tweet that some corners of the Xbox community believed was teasing a State of Decay 3 summer showcase appearance. While we felt that the tweet was perhaps a bit too vague to report on, we do think that Undead Labs' third SoD title is worth some sort of discussion at this stage.
Somehow, it's been almost four years since the game's very teaser-y teaser trailer from Xbox's 2020 summer showcase, and we've seen nothing on the game since. Nothing, zilch, absolute zero - State of Decay 3 has very much been 'in the dark' since July 2020 and it must be about time we see it again soon.
If they don't do a proper coop mode instead of the complete rubbish "no cooperative base building, only host progresses quests and clients just help host, hm I guess there's no coop in this game after all" design from previous games they might as well not do anything at all.
My jaw is still dropped on the floor since learning how they could drop the ball on what could've been the singular most popular feature of the game.
It's such a blunder of a tacked on useless thing currently that calling it an afterthought would be a big open hand slap in the face of coop gamers.
They should do it like Grounded/Halo Infinite with "Shared Save", which is the singular most awesome feature that has come to coop games since friendlyfire=off.
