Compared to the first game in the series, ''State of Decay 2'' has much more emphasis on being an open-world sandbox. Unlike the first game, there isn't really an overarching plot or main single-player campaign, instead focusing on more free-form gameplay similar to the original game's ''Breakdown'' DLC game mode. The game also features up to 4-player co-op gameplay.

!! State of Decay 2 contains examples of:
* AnyoneCanDie: Similar to the first game, any of your characters can die and the game will just keep going.
* MeleeATrois: Unlike the first game, ''State of Decay 2'' features combat against hostile survivors (although such fights are relatively rare), resulting in 3-way battles between you and your teammates, enemy survivors, and the zombies.
