How Undead Labs saved itself and State of Decay from oblivion

In this edition, we welcome Philip Holt, the boss of State of Decay developer Undead Labs. The studio has just declared its independence from Xbox, but has had to lay off a 'significant' number of staff as it prepares to release State of Decay 3 next year.

We discuss the studio's new independence, why it didn't find a buyer, whether it has enough to finish the upcoming horror game, the business realities facing smaller teams and his "irresponsible" approach to transparency. Plus, lots more!
