Killing Floor 3 Arrives on Xbox This Week

A Tripwire Interactive has announced that Killing Floor 3, the cooperative shooting game, will be released for Xbox on July 24th. The title promises a new horde of monstrosities, intense shootouts, and lots of fun, continuing the acclaimed cooperative action/horror FPS series.

Killing Floor 3 is set in the year 2091, 70 years after the events of Killing Floor 2. The dystopian narrative features the megacorporation Horzine, which has developed the "ultimate army": a horde of genetically modified monstrosities, known as Zeds. The rebel group Nightfall is humanity's last hope against these creations.

Players take on the role of a Nightfall specialist, joining forces with up to five teammates in a war-torn future. The goal is to survive relentless waves of Zeds, while unlocking new skills and building the ultimate arsenal. Tripwire Interactive has released a launch trailer, which can be checked out for more details on the action.

The arrival of Killing Floor 3 with its dystopian premise and cooperative focus could revitalize the horde shooter genre, or is the market already saturated with similar proposals?
