The sophomore effort from Undead Labs, State of Decay 2 is cruising right along with now over 2 million players. While it's sitting at a decent 68/100 here on OpenCritic, it's clear the game's building an enviable fanbase on both XBOX and PC. Now if only someone could convince them to put it on Steam/GOG/etc.

Here are some tasty bits from the story:

With so many players enjoying the game, we’ve seen some interesting trends and data since our previous milestone of 1 million players. So far, survivors have eliminated close to 2 billion zombies! We’re also seeing lots of successful survivor stories. Last week, players tended to survive about three days on average, and as of note, we’ve seen players complete over 121,000 community stories and start brand new communities with a new map that includes extra bonuses to help kickstart their new survival challenge. This shows an incredible commitment to the game and we’re excited so many of you are enjoying the rich survival experience that State of Decay 2 offers.
