“ Launch is just the beginning for Killing Floor 3 . Tripwire has a deep history of building upon our games after release with impactful updates and content, and the team remains immensely dedicated to crafting an experience that expands on the Killing Floor franchise. Players can expect new maps, new perks, new specialists, new weapons, and new enemies in the coming months following launch, ” said Bryan Wynia, Creative Director at Tripwire Interactive. “ We are incredibly excited to share what we have been working on with all of our fans. We look forward to fighting through the hordes of Zeds alongside you. Make sure to stick together and fight to the very last bullet, we will see you on the battlefield!”
Killing Floor 3 launches after a short delay as the development team took time to respond to community feedback with a range of improvements and adjustments to the game, all shared transparently with their community through their forums and social channels throughout the process. With an improved foundation and more updates and content coming post launch, including the separation of specialists from perks, the bloody stage is set for Tripwire Interactive’s industry-leading live game support. The development team has shared a roadmap of confirmed future content updates coming to all platforms, while remaining agile to respond to immediate player concerns and feedback.
“ We know fans have been eagerly waiting for Killing Floor 3 , and we appreciate everyone’s patience during the delay. That extra time allowed us to make meaningful improvements across the board, ensuring the game lives up to its full potential,” said Matthew LoPilato, CEO of Tripwire Interactive. “ Killing Floor is a cornerstone of our studio, and as the most ambitious entry in the series yet, Killing Floor 3 builds on that foundation, delivering brutal co-op action like never before."
Killing Floor 3 is the next installment in the legendary co-op action/horror FPS series. 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.
Killing Floor 3 Key Features Include:
Killer Co-op – Assemble the ultimate Zed extermination squad for frenzied 6-player co-op with full crossplay functionality across all platforms. Skilled specialists can brave the battlefield alone in tense single-player mode.
Relentless Zeds – Players will face the most lethal Zeds yet. Every enemy has been redesigned with advanced methods of mobility, attack, and re-tuned with smarter AI; making them faster, deadlier, and more strategic than ever.
Deadly Weapons – From flamethrowers to shotguns to katanas, players will have an expansive arsenal at their disposal, fully customizable with hundreds of mods, gadgets, and skills to choose from to fit their unique brand of bloodletting.
Dangerous Locations – Players will drop into a variety of treacherous hot zones to contain further spread of the Outbreak. Interactive environments give players dynamic advantages by activating turrets, fans, and other devastating traps.
More Gore – The M.E.A.T. System returns to deliver even more realistic carnage. Featuring additional points of dismemberment and persistent blood, the game responds to attacks with gruesome authenticity.
Developed and published by Tripwire Interactive, Killing Floor 3 launched on July 24, 2025 for PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store ), the PlayStation®5 system, and the Xbox Series X|S console system. The game has an ESRB rating of M for Mature and a PEGI 18 rating.
