State of Decay 2 isn’t really about the zombies. Sure, the small towns you’re trying to scavenge your way through are filled with hordes of the undead, and they’re its raison d'etre – but it’s a game about survival. It’s less about the lopping off of limbs, perfect headshots and gruesome finishing moves – though they’re all present. It’s all about learning how to stay alive in the face of an apocalypse.

There’s the usual stuff: Press conferences running late, XBoss Phil Spencer having the finest T-shirts in the land and South African journalists being utterly buggered after flying for literal days to reach Los Angeles. So hell, why not make a game out of it? Why not get out the paper, jot down some buzzwords and prepare yourself for…E3 BINGO!

In Days Gone, you'll need to take good care of your wheels as they're your primary way of staying alive in a world gone mad.
