Hey, so here’s the rundown on Killing Floor 3. Seriously, this game feels like it jumped right out of a futuristic horror novel. Picture this: It’s 2091 — sounds distant, right? Anyway, Horzine, this giant corporation, has conjured up some wicked bio-engineered monsters called Zeds. Why? Beats me.
So these Zeds, they’re not here for tea and biscuits. They’re an actual army or something, and your squad — Nightfall — gotta take ’em down. How did they even become Zeds, you ask? Ain’t nobody got answers, but you gotta play as a Nightfall specialist. It’s a bit like being in a zombie flick, only it’s 100 times more chaotic. You’re in this base called The Stronghold. Why is it called that? No clue. Maybe because “Weakhold” didn’t sound good? Who knows.
While you’re battling these Zeds, you’ll be clicking buttons like crazy. The control setup? Oh, let me tell you — it’s kinda like a dance. Jump, aim, shoot, run. Press X, R2, L2… wait, which is X again? Typical gamer confusion, right? And before the real fun, there’s a tutorial. I almost dozed off there, but once you hit the online multiplayer… Yikes, it’s a ride!
Speaking of a ride, Killing Floor 3’s predecessor did make waves back in… 2018 or something. I remember loads of folks talking about it. There’s this combo pack thing they did with VR in the past. Anyway — focus — now we’ve got the sequel.
The battling’s pretty intense. More than just “point and shoot.” You need strategies, man. There are skills — passive and whatnot. Honestly, it might sound like I’m hyping it, but mastering them feels rewarding. Kinda like finding the last slice of pizza when you’re not expecting it. Perk alert! There’s one called “Not Dead Yet.” I chuckled at the name. It’s like, yeah okay, I get it, I’m probably gonna get hit, but lemme breathe a sec, alright?
Right, trophies. Gamers, here’s your fuel: unlock a bunch of stuff and go platinum. It’s like a virtual pat on the back for not dying repeatedly. You can earn them by doing things like handing out Dosh — sounds oddly generous — and leveling up specialties. What’s Dosh anyway? Just money, okay?
For $39.99, you get the game. But feel fancy? The Elite Nightfall Edition is there for $79.99. Comes with skins and creds. What are creds good for? Not sure, but I’m guessing it’s like when you have ice cream sprinkles — just because you can.
To wrap this chaotic love letter to Killing Floor 3: it’s wild, it’s unpredictable, and thinking about 2091 gives me this weird shiver. Is it the perfect game? Maybe not, but it’s a heck of a ride on PS5. Are you jumping in? Well, that’s up to you. Or not. Maybe?
