Open-world zombie survival game State of Decay is coming to XBLA, PC

Class 3 graduates into a very ambitious horror game.

A year and a half ago we heard about an open-world XBLA game called Class 3. It all but disappeared for awhile, but has just resurfaced as State of Decay by Undead Labs.

While Class 3 was once slated to be an XBLA exclusive, State of Decay is coming to both XBLA and PC.

Undead Labs described it as "a third-person action game set in a dynamic open world" on its official site.

"You choose where to make your stand, designing and fortifying your home base, performing daring raids for food and ammunition, and rescuing other playable survivors with unique talents. The open, sandbox world develops in real-time, shaped by your actions, dynamically generating content based on your choices and the ever-increasing zombie threat."

Much of the game will be about gathering limited resources that will grow increasingly sparse as you pillage the world.

To get a glimpse of State of Decay in action, check out its announcement trailer below.
