State of Decay 3 Escapes Xbox Layoffs, But Its Future Remains Uncertain

by

Following the Xbox layoffs, several eagerly awaited video games have been shelved, including Perfect Dark and Everwild. Subsequent reports indicate additional projects in progress were also scrapped due to unexpected budget reductions. Luckily, State of Decay 3 is not among those games that were discontinued… at least for the time being.

According to gaming expert Jez Corden, as of now, the open-world horror game is not officially canceled. However, due to the unexpected nature of recent developments, Corden expresses caution, suggesting that the game’s future may be uncertain. This doesn’t necessarily mean the game will be scrapped, but the latest moves from Xbox have caused quite a stir among the gaming community.

The third installment of the “State of Decay” series is a significant title for Xbox, given its popularity, and it seems unlikely that the company would abandon it. While it may not be the most exceptional or innovative game, being part of a successful franchise gives it importance in the eyes of Xbox, which explains why they chose to keep it going. However, this doesn’t excuse the cancellation of games like Perfect Dark, but it helps us understand their decision-making process.

Time alone will reveal whether Microsoft continues to find worth in the series or decides to shelve this installment as well. Given the long silence regarding any substantial updates from the game, we can only cross our fingers that projects like this and Fable continue to progress in development. Microsoft might resort to its proven strategy of re-launching these games on different consoles, given their decreasing focus on exclusivity.

There’s no set launch date for State of Decay 3 yet, which might prompt some fans to express worry. However, things could shift within the next few months, but it’s hard to predict what Xbox may decide in the meantime. Regardless of future developments, it seems that a company like Microsoft might not be the ideal choice for its release.
