State of Decay 3 finally has a release year: 2027

After five years of near-total silence, Undead Labs showed up at the Xbox Games Showcase with a new State of Decay 3 trailer — and one concrete piece of information: the game is coming in 2027.

That's it. No month, no day, just the year. State of Decay 3 was first announced back in 2020, and Undead Labs has said almost nothing about it since.

It's a thin reveal, but in an industry where games quietly disappear all the time, confirmation that the project is still alive counts for something.
