The highly anticipated Xbox exclusive game State of Decay 3 might be on the brink of receiving its first major update in four years. Initially introduced in 2020, State of Decay 3 was among the first titles unveiled for the Xbox Series X/S console lineup. While the cinematic trailer provided a glimpse into the thematic direction of State of Decay 3, specifics about the game have been scarce.

The preceding two State of Decay installments revolve around managing a community of survivors amidst a zombie apocalypse. Despite receiving mixed reviews, these games have fostered a loyal following. The reveal trailer for State of Decay 3 hints at a notably darker narrative shift for the series, yet concrete details have been elusive since its initial announcement. The game has maintained a conspicuous silence, but this silence might soon be broken.

Notable Microsoft insider Jez Corden has hinted at a potential update for State of Decay 3 during the upcoming Xbox showcase in June. Corden's cryptic tweet regarding the rumored Gears 6 reveal at the same event has fueled speculation.
