State of Decay 3 fans, brace yourselves! The game and its developer, Undead Labs, are facing a rocky road as reports suggest both could be at risk of closure due to impending Xbox layoffs. Rumor has it that Microsoft is actively trying to sell Undead Labs to avoid canceling the game.
According to various reports, if Microsoft can’t find a buyer, State of Decay 3 might not see the light of day. This isn’t just about one game; several Microsoft-owned studios, including Ninja Theory and Double Fine, are reportedly exploring ways to buy themselves out to avoid shutdown. Fans were excited when State of Decay 3 was announced for PlayStation 5 at the Xbox Games Showcase, but now its future seems murky.
All this comes after a memo from Xbox CEO Asha Sharma hinted at big changes due to a dip in profits. The gaming division, including big names like Bethesda and Activision Blizzard, is feeling the heat. Workers are pushing back, demanding better protections amidst the chaos. With everything up in the air, it’s a tough time for Xbox fans and developers alike. For more on these developments, check out how Xbox workers are responding to the potential layoffs.
