We’re extremely excited for fans to finally experience the world we’ve been building.”

We’ve provided free support to the player base all that time, through two incarnations, so now we’re beyond excited to start showing you what mayhem the next iteration of the franchise will bring you!”
Set in 2091, Killing Floor 3 runs is built using Unreal Engine 5. “Megacorp Horzine has produced the ultimate army: an obedient horde of bio-engineered monstrosities called Zeds”, the description of the game reads. “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.”
