After more than 6 incredible years, State of Decay 2 has released its final update. We're incredibly proud of what we accomplished in nearly forty updates. New systems came online, new worlds to explore were created. Players were granted more and better ways to customize and deepen their own experience. We learned a lot too; this was our first time supporting a game at this level. Our community grew as we expanded onto multiple platforms. Everything we learned as developers, and everything we learned by listening to our community, have made us a better studio. We want to thank each and every one of you for playing State of Decay 2 and supporting us. We love making the game you love to play. Here's to the future!
To our community: Letters from studio head Philip Holt, and IP co-creator Brant Fitzgerald.

Here at Undead Labs, it’s not unusual to see someone’s calendar booked for an hour because they’re donating blood, especially during the summer months when the blood supply is critically low. Learn more about our ongoing partnership with the American Red Cross and how we're rallying our dedicated, zombie-slaying community to help save lives both in the game and in real life. 🚑
