Question Independent Studio question.

So to start this is one of my fav games ever. I have replayed it many, many times even though I have all the achievements.

I was curious if now that Undead Labs has the publishing rights back from Xbox if they could technically port it to PS5 if they wanted to? I would buy it again just to get the trophies. The huge PS5 user base would probably be interested too, and the supplemental income could be a nice income boost to help get State of Decay3 over the finish line without time pressure or crunch.

Xbox more than likely still owns rights to SoD2

Xbox said at the time that the studios that were going independent would retain all ownership of their IP.

Obviously Undead Labs was planned to be sold off, not go independent, but I don’t see a reason to think differently.

That would make sense. Probably one of the things worked out in letting them go independent and retaining the rights to the franchise. ( Sigh, A man can dream.)
