The PC version of the hit Xbox Live Arcade open world zombie game State of Decay will be landing on Steam Early Access, allowing gamers to play a beta build of the game ahead of its official release.
According to the developer Undead Labs on their Facebook page:
Okay. Here was PAX in a nutshell. We brought a PC to show off how pretty SoD looks on a PC. It was a normal machine with two year old components, running the game on the medium settings. We will be launching the controller-only version on Steam as part of their Early Access thing in a couple weeks or so - please note that I can’t control the exact date, and I don’t have one to give you. Then comes Sandbox (still testing, so again, I don’t have an exact date), and before the year is out, the full mouse and keyboard PC version on Steam.
Discussions of future games are ongoing. As in, going on now. Thank you all from the bottom of all of our hearts here at the Lab for making SoD a success, or these conversations wouldn’t be happening!
The Xbox Live Arcade version of State of Decay sold 500K units in its first two weeks of release.
