Release Date: November 18, 2016
A sequel to the cooperative online shooter - Killing Floor - which came out in 2009 as a commercial version of a standalone Unreal Tournament 2004 modification. The sequel was prepared by the creators of the original – Tripwire Interactive, also known for another popular game modification, Red Orchestra.
Killing Floor 2 for PC, PS4 and XONE is a brutal shooter based on cooperative multiplayer mode. The production was developed by studio Tripwire Interactive which also made its predecessor. The team’s portfolio includes also the Red Orchestra series. The game doesn’t feature an extensive storyline, taking place in the near future and telling the story of small groups of well-trained soldiers fighting against hordes of bloodthirsty mutants created as a result of medical experiments conducted by Horzine Biotech corporation. When we start our adventure, the monsters had already taken over many human cities; among the available maps we can find, e.g., ruined Paris. The atmosphere of this title is reminiscent of B class horror movies.
Killing Floor 2 for PC, PS4 and XONE follows the premise established by its predecessor. Again, we get a first-person shooter focused on cooperative mode, in which a small group of players must forces to fend off waves of murderous mutants. The game is very difficult and survival requires tight cooperation between us and our comrades in arms. Once we take care of a group of mutants, we can catch our breath and regroup, repair damaged barricades and visit merchants, where we can buy ammunition and weapons with money earned by killing monsters. At the end of each wave of enemies a powerful boss awaits us.
The gameplay is more varied thanks to the character development system. There are 25 levels of experience and each of them unlocks two new skills. However, we can activate only one of each pair at the same time. At the same time, the difficulty level underwent some deep changes. In the previous installment, the mutants only differed in of speed and endurance, and now opponents also become more aggressive and gain additional abilities.
The game was developed with a much larger budget than the original production. As a consequence, it features significantly better visuals, with a higher level of detail and realistic animations based on motion capture technology. The creators also developed and implemented a very brutal damage system. The body of each mutant was divided into a number of separate parts. It is possible, e.g., to separate flesh from the monster’s skull with bullets, or split the bone to expose the brain, which we can then chop into small pieces. This experience is integrated with the realistic physics engine, providing the impression of bodies having proper weight and, while we have fun playing, gallons of blood are poured on the map and remain visible until the end of the match.

Game Ratings for Killing Floor 2 Video Game.
GameSpot: 8 / 10 by Miguel Concepcion
The game hones in on the basic appeal of killing Zombies without the complications of reaching waypoints or setting up intricate fortifications. Yet Killing Floor 2's strongest asset is in its simple yet effective combat--Tripwire could substitute the Zeds for robots or Nazis and still have a solid shooter on its hands.
Hardcore Gamer: 4.5 / 5 by Jason Bohn
The best indicator that this game has legs can be shown through this (ittedly) anecdotal evidence: when playing Killing Floor 2 online outside of the designated review meet up times on the PlayStation 4, I was still able to find a game with other players.
IGN: 8 / 10 by Brian Albert
In a time when shooters are competing to have the most modes, the biggest campaign, the most guns, and generally the most “stuff,” along comes Killing Floor 2, totally unconcerned with running that race. Its lack of modes and bosses will eventually turn away anyone but the most dedicated of fans, but its foundation is so fun and rock solid that, even if you only plan on playing for a few weeks with your friends, there’s plenty here to enjoy.
