Today, Tripwire Interactive announced the release date of Killing Floor 3. The third chapter in the cooperative first-person shooter zombie game will be available on PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X starting March 25. Pre-orders are now open across all platforms through retail and digital stores.
When it comes to retail, global publisher PLAION will offer the following options:
● Standard Edition (MSRP of $39.99) – Available in North America, includes the base game and a pre-order bonus, either the limited timed exclusive Clamefield Patrol Specialist Skins Pack, or the Flatline Tactical Bundle (at select retailers).
● Day 1 Edition (MSRP of $39.99) – Available outside North America, includes the base game, Flatline Tactical Bundle, and Clamefield Patrol Specialist Skins Pack.
Digitally, beyond the standard edition, players will also be able to purchase these premium editions of Killing Floor 3:

● Elite Nightfall Edition (MSRP of $79.99) – Includes everything from the Deluxe Edition plus Year 1 Premium Nightfall Supply Pass Access (four passes) and 3000 Creds.
Like with any game that opens up pre-orders, Killing Floor 3 also shared the PC system requirements via the store pages. Long story short, it won't be a very taxing game to run on your rig.

Killing Floor 3 will take place roughly 70 years after the previous installment, when megacorporation Horzine has created the ultimate army: a docile horde of bio-engineered monstrosities called Zeds. The only thing standing between them and mankind is the rogue group known as Nightfall. The game puts players in the role of a Nightfall specialist, who'll then team up with up to five teammates. Smarter AI, dynamic environments, new and fully customizable weapons, and even more realistic dismemberment are the signature features promised by Tripwire.
If having to wait two months sounds too long, you could try signing up for the Closed Beta that will take place between February 20 and 24. As a side note, the game's release window shared in May 2024 by Embracer Group has been respected. We'll see if that's the case for two other games published by Embracer, Titan Quest II and Gothic Remake, both of which were also slated to launch by March.
