Original story (published on August 3, 2021) follows:

State of Decay 2 is an open-world survival horror game that takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where the only objective is to stay alive.

It follows the same path as its predecessor, placing players in the middle of a zombie-infested world.

The only way to stay alive is by scavenging for food and supplies and build a tightly knit community. Players can either enjoy the game solo or play with their friends.

Released in May of 2018, the game is regularly updated with new content that keeps the players on their toes.

With that being said, it looks like the latest update to State of Decay 2 is causing the game to crash.

While some reports suggest that the game crashes after opening inventory or interacting with something in the supply locker, others report that the crashes are random in nature.

I was fine for the first couple hours. Now I’ve gotten crash to home screen 4 times in the past hour. And every one was while I was in my locker. Though not every time I’m in my locker does it crash.
