Feature overview

  • Viscerally gory: Killing Floor 2 expands and refreshes the gore-focused theme with visuals of unprecedented realism. Players will send guts, severed limbs and pools of blood flying as they fight their way through hordes of enemies. But they will need to be careful! If they are unfortunate enough to be caught by the specimens, they and their entire team will end up shredded and dismembered.
  • Co-op for up to six players or solo play: A multitude of playable characters allows players to work together online, or go solo if they are brave enough to fight the terrifying specimens alone.
  • A 12-player PvP Survival mode: Become a Zed! A 12-player PvP mode lets two teams face off, switching sides each round. In the first round, one team plays as the humans and the other as the Zeds, until all the humans are dead or they kill the boss. In the second round, the teams switch sides. At the end of the match, each team receives a score based on its performance during the game, and the team with the highest score wins!
  • Terrifying Zeds: Discover new enemies and encounter fan favorites from the original game. With improved artificial intelligence, more powerful attacks and the ability to attack in groups to weaken the player's team, the new Zeds spread terror and raise the difficulty level.
  • A unique arsenal: From modern military assault rifles and historical firearms to improvised weapons and creations worthy of a mad scientist, Killing Floor 2 offers an arsenal to satisfy every player.
  • An improved perk system: The perks from the original game have been redesigned and improved. Each can now evolve through talent choices. These favor certain play styles, creating broad progression possibilities filled with various rewards.
  • Brutal melee combat: Killing Floor 2 completely reinvents close-quarters combat. Players can now control the type of melee attacks they want to perform, allowing them to destroy Zeds with a single well-placed attack.
  • Optimized for PS4 Pro
