Killing Floor 3 advances the dark narrative of the Zed conflict by leaping 70 years ahead from Killing Floor 2. The game introduces a new wave of Zeds unleashed by the megacorp Horzine, with players joining the resistance group known as Nightfall.
At its core, Killing Floor 3 offers intense 6-player co-op gameplay where you must fend off hordes of Zeds. With six Specialist character classes, diverse weaponry, and strategic upgrades, players must navigate through waves of enemies, utilizing tactics and teamwork to survive.
The game’s signature M.E.A.T. System returns with enhanced gore effects, adding a visceral touch to the combat experience, especially when wielding a katana.
For fans of horde mode games and the Killing Floor series, Killing Floor 3 promises the same adrenaline-pumping action and survival challenges. Get ready to face relentless enemies, adapt to changing scenarios, and strive to outlast the Zed onslaught.
