Obsidian Help and Deep Combat: New State of Decay 3 Details

The developers of State of Decay 3 from Undead Labs on the Xbox Wire blog revealed new details of the cooperative zombie action game. A new trailer for the title was shown at the recent Xbox Games Showcase presentation.

The creators of the game emphasized that the trailer shown was entirely assembled from game assets and runs on the Unreal Engine 5. Undead Labs noted that the video shows “a typical gaming session for four players.”

• Obsidian and The Coalition are taking part in the development – the first helps with the shared world in the style of Grounded, and the second assists in working with the Unreal Engine 5

• Emphasis on the emotional component through the deaths of heroes and stories in the world

• A more lively and hit-responsive combat system with an emphasis on brutal zombie dismemberment

• Deep combat systems, enemy behavior, and animation quality all contribute to enhanced feel and situational gameplay

• The game takes place several years after the apocalypse

• Undead Labs also promises deeper customization – weapons, characters, settlements, etc.

• The game will have a big emphasis on crafting “personal” weapons – you can look for standard and ready-made guns or melee weapons, or you can assemble your own from parts
