Tripwire Interactive announces that Killing Floor 2 is now available as
an Early Access title on
Steam. Here's a new
early
access launch trailer and here's word:
Tripwire Interactive today
announced that its highly anticipated co-op sci-fi horror FPS game, KILLING
FLOOR 2, is available now for PC via
Steam Early Access for
$29.99 (US), ₤19.99 (UK) and €26.99 (EU). KILLING FLOOR 2 is the sequel to the
highly successful 2009 PC title, KILLING FLOOR, which has sold over 3 million
units since its release. With an abundant amount of weapons to choose from, such
as the Double-barrel Boomstick and the ruthless Pulverizer, players can team up
with friends in up to 6-player co-op to better their chances of survival or play
solo if they dare.
“With the Early Access release of Killing Floor 2, we’re starting with a really
fun core game,” said John Gibson, President of Tripwire Interactive. “We’re
looking forward to dialing in that fun with community feedback during Early
Access, and of course expanding that experience with awesome free content!”
At the Steam Early Access launch, players will be able to dive into a fully
functional, highly polished subset of KILLING FLOOR 2 content, including:
• 3 non-linear levels – The dark streets of
Burning Paris, the ice covered Outpost, and a re-imagined version of the
original Biotics Lab
• 4 perks – Berserker, Support, Commando and Medic
classes
• 27 weapons – Ranging from shotguns to assault
rifles to crazy makeshift hybrid weapons!
• 11 deadly and terrifying Zeds – All determined
to destroy you
• 7 playable characters - Including fan favorites
Mr. Foster and Constable Rob Briar as well as a new female character – Ana
Larive
• 1 new boss character – Enter Hans Volter and his
arsenal of devastating weapons and attacks
• Mod SDK supporting custom level creation
Tripwire is known for listening to and engaging with their fans and it
will be no different with KILLING FLOOR 2. The purpose of the Steam Early Access
period is to gather feedback from players, both experienced and new, in order to
continue to hone and refine the gameplay balance to provide the best possible
experience for the full official launch. Tripwire will iterate based on
community feedback with goals that include adding new maps, monsters, perks,
weapons, game types and more as leading up to the Full Release.
Players who purchase Killing Floor 2 during Early Access will be entitled to a
breadth of free content that they will be able to carry over into Full Release,
as well as more free content at Full Release and beyond – further fulfilling the
legacy of offering robust content that Tripwire maintains with its community.
