State of Decay 2 Crosses 1 Million Players
State of Decay 2 breaks record by gathering over 1 million players in first two days of global release.
Open world zombie survival game State of Decay 2 from Undead Labs and Microsoft Studios has saw worldwide release only two days ago and they are already on news.

Ultimate Edition of the game has opened it up for owners of a copy on May 18 and then the rest pour in on May 22 with their Standard Edition.

There are some more interesting numbers we would like to add. For instance, 6 million firecrackers and fireworks were thrown for either signaling fellow survivors to get help or celebrate success in post-apocalyptic world. Players have collectively read 2 million textbooks and ate 6 million bags of snack. Over 675 million zombies were exterminated and that means an average player have killed more than 600 of them alone. Average survival period was three in-game days and some even managed to stretch to a full month.

However, you should realize that assembling 1 million players doesn't necessarily means that it has sold over a million copies. Even if it sounds confusing, we need to consider that the game is currently up on Xbox One's game streaming service Xbox Game Pass and subscribing members of this service are allowed to play it for free. So, you can see how that thing works now.

Being the only exciting Xbox One-exclusive game of this year aside from the slightly disappointing Sea of Thieves, State of Decay 2 is under a lot of pressure from before the release. Yet, numbers are surely looking exciting for Undead Labs and Microsoft Studios' join effort project. Because of dealing with a number of bugs, it also failed to land an impressive review from critics. Although it is a successful sequel that lived up to every expectation, it still has a long way to go.
