Following the recent Deep Dive published by Undead Labs, new details about State of Decay 3 continue to emerge. On this occasion, an extensive video of almost two hours shared by content creator Brian Menard allows us to observe one of the most important aspects of the game: the construction, management, and defense of survivor bases.

The video delves into an aspect that has always been key to the saga and promises to be even more comprehensive in this third installment, offering more options for developing a community capable of resisting the zombie apocalypse.

Bases will be more important than ever in State of Decay 3

Images show how players will be able to manage all resources obtained during expeditions to grow their settlement. Supply management, facility construction, and improvement of different structures will once again be fundamental to ensuring the group’s survival.

• Another highlight is the role of survivors. Each community member will have specific skills that can make a difference in both daily base tasks and exploration missions, requiring careful planning of the group’s composition.
• Additionally, the new creation and improvement system will allow players to invest resources found in the world to expand the shelter’s possibilities, unlocking new facilities and increasing the chances of resisting constant infected attacks.

Everything suggests that Undead Labs has sought to enhance one of the franchise’s most valued elements, giving more weight to strategic management without renouncing the exploration and action that characterize the series. State of Decay 3 is still scheduled for 2027 and will arrive on day one to Xbox Game Pass, where it will be one of the major exclusives of Xbox Game Studios for next year.
