Tripwire Interactive are finally counting to three with the announcement that Killing Floor 3 is currently in development for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series. The announcement accompanies a slick new trailer for the game, which you can keep track of via the official site.
Harnessing the power of Unreal Engine 5, Tripwire will build upon the legacy of the series that began way back in 2009, realizing its gruesome graphical vision and “embracing its dark dystopian tone to deliver the next terrifying evolution in action and horror”.
“As a lifelong horror fan, it’s been an honor to lead our passionate development team as we create Killing Floor 3,” said Bryan Wynia, Studio Creative Director at Tripwire Interactive. “We’re extremely excited for fans to finally experience the world we’ve been building.”
The year is 2091, 70 years after the events in Killing Floor 2, and megacorp Horzine has produced the ultimate army: an obedient horde of bio-engineered monstrosities called Zeds. Now, the only thing standing between these infernal creations and the future of humanity is the rebel rogue group known as Nightfall. This intense first-person shooter puts players in the role of a Nightfall specialist, joining forces with up to five teammates as they battle through a war-ravaged, dystopian future, surviving unrelenting waves of Zeds, unlocking new skills, and building the ultimate arsenal.
