About Killing Floor

Killing Floor started as a UT2004 mod, then retail in May 2009 with mercs holding waves of Horzine Zeds. Part 2 hit early access April 2015 and full release November 2016 on PC and PS4 with a month later story and Xbox port in 2017.

Part 3 arrived July 2025 on PS5, PC and Xbox Series in 2091 as a direct sequel on Unreal 5. Season 2 Operation Breakout in December 2025 plus Deep Freeze and summer 2026 maps keep it live. No fourth game has been announced as of September 2026. Play 1 through 3 in order for perks and lore.

Good to know

There is no separate chronological order. Part 2 sits a month after part 1 and part 3 jumps to 2091, so release order is the only list. Play solo or co-op in the same spots. Part 3 is the active game with seasons, while parts 1 and 2 are complete history you can skip if short on time. Start at part 1 if new.
