Only D.A.R and Oisten Jägerhorn can be counted as new playable heroes added into the base game since it’s the final release. CharactersĬharacters haven’t changed much in the base game. Hans Volter and Patriarch, we’ve got King Fleshpound, Abomination, and Matriarch. Nowadays, we match our strength with five of them: along with familiar Dr. At the start, we had only two bosses that spawned randomly in the last round of the game. BossesĪs for bosses, there were many more updates than for zeds. Next, we were introduced to E.D.A.R robots, which are again uncommon enemies, yet can spawn on any level of difficulty. The deadly squad of our old friends was expanded by adding rioters, which have a chance to spawn only on suicidal and hell-on-earth difficulties. Any player who reached level 25 of the perk can reset it back to level 0, gaining a modified perk icon, 2,000,000 Vosh money, and experience boosts for leveling up in the future. Back & Kicked Brass brought back the whole objective mode from the 1st Killing Floor, in which you had to complete a series of tasks assigned to you by an NPC.Īside from the regular level-up system, the game now also has prestige ranks that first appeared in Treacherous Skies update. Twisted Christmas 2018 update added Santa’s Workshop map, where you have to keep the Santa’s cart up and running, or else you’ll be unable to finish the round. However, some of the updates introduced new modes, where you have other objectives to complete to win the game (in the end, it still comes down to more killing, though). The major goal of each KF2 game is to clear out all the zeds at the location and beat the boss.

That’s Killing Floor 2 as we know it for most of its time, let’s see what has changed next. Tripwire fired just two updates with a few maps and weapons during 2016, and the game started gaining momentum only in 2017 when seasonal events and weekly outbreaks were introduced during the first Summer Sideshow update.

In the beginning, we had a little over 10 maps, 30 weapons, and 2 bosses. Yet, now the game features manifold more stuff than on its very start. There were no drastic changes to the gameplay - it’s still a zombie-killing coop with tons of blood, gore, and ghoulish creatures. Speaking of the latest updates: today, we’re going to look back at the initial release of Killing Floor 2 and compare it to what the game has become. Killing Floor 2 has incorporated the best of the original part and introduced new game mechanics, especially in the latest updates.

It’s a perfect title for zombie games aficionados and lovers of not-so-hardcore shooters in terms of gunplay physics. Killing Floor 2: Three Years After ReleaseĮven though Killing Floor never secured the top spots in the lists of best cooperative games, it clinched an army of loyal fans and a score of 75 on Metacritic.
