New Gameplay Today – State Of Decay 2

Undead Labs is bringing its State of Decay sequel to Xbox One and PC next month, and we couldn't be happier. The first game had a brilliant core, balancing elements of survival, town management, and zombie murder, but it was marred by frequent bugs and other technical issues. Will State of Decay 2 live up to its potential? Brian Shea spent a few hours playing the game recently, and in today's NGT he walks us through a small – but meaty – portion of his experience.

We've got a full house this episode, with Brian and Ben Hanson joining Leo and me in the studio. Watch the video to see about half an hour of missions, including a segment where we scour the world for the world's greatest song (!!!). Brian won't necessarily win any land-speed records, but fans of bashed-in brains will have plenty to love.

State of Decay 2 is coming to Xbox One and PC on May 22.
