Dead Plague: Zombie Survival vs State of Decay 2
Dead Plague: Zombie Survival
Dead Plague: Zombie Survival is a free-to-play, twin-stick shooter that is set in a post-apocalyptic world where zombies roam in great numbers. Although the game does feature a fun co-op (up to 4 players) endless mode, it's interesting to note that there is also a single-player, story-driven campaign where you can learn more about the events that had led up to the decimation of the human race. Of course, there are also an arsenal of weapons (they have durability and can be damaged) for you to choose from, varied zombies to fight as well as challenging bosses to defeat.Despite some of its more apparent flaws, Dead Plague: Zombie Survival is a pretty decent twin-stick shooter that has a well-optimized co-op gameplay.

State of Decay 2
State of Decay 2 is the highly-anticipated and long-awaited sequel to one of the top zombie-survival action-shooters out there, State of Decay. Unlike the original game, this installment has a bit more community management in it rather than simply trying to survive as a lone wolf. Each survivor has their own set of traits, skills, and attitudes that you'll need to keep balanced so that your community will thrive rather than succumb to in-fighting and general discontent.In this game, you can assign tasks to each survivor, upgrade your base, help the community solve its issues (through completing personal quests, heeding advice, or resolving disputes), and of course, recruit more survivors to join your band. State of Decay 2 will also feature a co-op mode - It's about time! - where you can try to survive with up to 3 of your friends. Not to mention, like its predecessor, the game is set in a massive open world that you're free to explore.
State of Decay 2 is definitely among the few biggest games that fans of zombie-survival games but I'm sad to say that although the game does improve on the original, the improvements are just too little and too insignificant. The game is still as shallow as before and the game gets boring and stale pretty quickly (just a couple of hours in). The game might still be worth buying on a steep discount.
