The same team-based, multiplayer action that made ‘Left 4 Dead’ so addictive is taken to a new level with Killing Floor 2. Tripwire Interactive has unleashed their follow-up to their first viscerally gory ‘Killing Floor.’ This time around they polished controls, gameplay and turned the fast-paced gory action up to an eleven. In addition to PC, turns out the team has also released a version for Playstation 4 and Playstation 4 Pro.

Killing Floor 2 takes place in post outbreak Europe. The Union is still in chaos after the events of the first Killing Floor. Everything has gone to hell in a hand basket.  The only people taking the fight back to the specimen clones is a group of privately funded mercenaries.

The game plays and looks fantastic. It is fast-paced and hardwired. You can play solo or in 6 player co-op. Much like the latest ‘Doom’ or ‘Left 4 Dead,’ this is balls-to-the-wall, arena-style combat against hordes of well-designed, nightmare fuel inspired creatures. Killing Floor 2 offers a unique blend of perks and weaponry, that bend and shape themselves to your own playing style. This is seriously, a lot of run n’ gun fun and gives games in its category a formidable competitor in the world of FPS arena combat.

Blowing someone to pieces is beyond satisfying. The game does a fantastic job with its gore mechanics. If you played the first Killing Floor, you will be happy to see that gore animations have been improved in graphic detail. There is a lot to come back and visit, in this follow-up.

KEY FEATURES:

• Visceral Gore – KILLING FLOOR 2 ramps up the gore with a proprietary, high powered persistent blood system bringing new levels of fidelity to the genre.

For the second match the teams switch sides and when the battle is completed both teams receive a score based on their performance and the higher score wins!
