Battle Royale er en populær spiltype i disse stunder, og det lader til at samtlige spil får implementeret spiltypen. Dog har Undead Labs udtalt, at der ikke vil være en Battle Royale-spiltype i State of Decay 2, selvom en twist med zombier i en kamp om overlevelse mod andre spillere kunne være interessant.
Undead Labs design director Richard Foge har i et interview udtalt:
"It really is an offshoot of survival games."
"I've been talking to a lot of journalists, and I'm asked often... 'So, are you doing a battle royale game? Cos literally everyone else is,". Foge griner, og fortsætter:
"But it's like there's this field of wheat, right? And somebody built this perfect, glorious combine and went over that field of wheat. If somebody then comes up and asks you... 'Would you also like to build a combine to go over this field of wheat?' I'm like... there's no wheat left!
"These giant combines have been rolling through this space - there's nothing left for us to harvest. I would much rather us focus on what we're doing, trying to find something unique in the space to excite and inspire them. Some new thing as opposed to trying to follow what other folks are doing, trying to see what scraps I can get from that."
Fokus lader til at være der hvor det hele tiden har været for State of Decay 2 - overlevelse mod en nådesløs zombie-epidemi, og ikke mod 99 andre spillere.
Har Undead Labs fokus det rette sted, eller så du gerne en alternativ Battle Royale-del med zombier?
