The third-person open-world game focuses on surviving in a zombie-infested world, and promises a dynamically generated experience that changes in real time.

State of Decay was originally unveiled as Class3 in 2011, with the game designed as a precursor to a zombie MMO that was announced by Undead Labs back in 2009.

Undead Labs is led by Jeff Strain, one of the original founders of Guild Wars developer ArenaNet and former lead programmer for World of Warcraft.

A PC version of State of Decay is also in the works, but no release date has been specified.
