State Of Decay 2 Launches On Steam In 2020

Xbox Game Studios’ State of Decay 2 is finally making its way Steam. No concrete release date has been provided yet, but the game is expected to launch early next year on the platform.

The open-world zombie survival game, developed by Microsoft-owned Undead Labs, has received a plethora of DLC since its May 2018 launch on Xbox One. The latest, Heartland, came out during Microsoft’s E3 2019 press conference and is billed as State of Decay 2’s biggest expansion yet. The game’s Steam store page currently makes no mention of whether this PC release will ship with all the game’s DLC.

It’s worth noting that State of Decay 2 and its Heartland expansion are available through Xbox Game Pass. The game also supports cross-play between Windows 10 PC and Xbox One, though it’s unclear if the feature will be supported when the game launches on Steam in early 2020.

In our State of Decay 2 review, we said, “State of Decay 2 settles into a rhythm that might be easy for you to pass some hours with, but it’s never a ride with genuine surprises, excitement or purpose. There’s promise in so many systems that it introduces, but they’re woefully underutilized to make space for repetitive activities that are nowhere near as exciting to engage with. State of Decay 2 feels like the lumbering enemies that populate its country mountains. Aimless, wandering, and just out of place.”
