Tripwire Interactive has announced the next chapter in the Killing Floor franchise.

Announced at Gamescom yesterday, Killing Floor 3 is currently in development with a forthcoming release on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. An announcement trailer can be seen here. Killing Floor 3 can be wishlisted on Steam right now here.

A synopsis for the game reads:

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.

Alan Wilson, Co-Founder and CEO at Tripwire Interactive said this about the new title:

“It's hard to believe that Killing Floor is almost 15 years old now. 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!"

The first two Killing Floor games earned a combined $100 million with over 26 million players diving into the action.
