State of Decay 2: Rebuild, Survive, and Lead

State of Decay 2 is an open-world survival game set in the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse. As the leader of a small community of survivors, it’s up to you to rebuild civilization—one decision at a time.

You control every aspect of survival:

Recruiting Survivors: Choose who joins your team, each with their own skills and personality.

Base Building: Decide where to establish your settlement, how to fortify it, and when to relocate.

Resource Management: Send survivors on scavenging missions for food, ammo, and supplies.

Combat & Defense: Strategically select fighters to defend your base from the undead.

Human Encounters: Will you cooperate with newcomers, or protect your land by force?

Every playthrough is unique, shaped by the survivors you recruit, the choices you make, and the challenges that arise along the way.

Multiplayer & Game Modes:

Co-op Mode: Join friends’ communities to help them through tough situations and earn rewards for your own settlement.

Campaign Mode: A 10-hour narrative experience for those who prefer structured storytelling.

Siege Defense Mode: A four-player survival challenge focused on eliminating waves of zombies.

Developed by Undead Labs, State of Decay 2 offers an immersive take on the zombie apocalypse. Stay alert, keep your weapons ready—this is survival at its most intense.
