Killing Floor 3 is an unapologetic throwback to the gory days of the horde shooter

Killing Floor 3 official screenshot.

Killing Floor 3 is one of the most visceral games I've ever played. Insofar as, well, even a simple firefight will leave the place spattered with viscera, every corner of the room filled with buckets full of gore for just a handful of kills.

It's enough to make you want to reach for a mop and bucket, honestly. The thing is a game of Killing Floor 3 is never just a handful of kills. Killing Floor has a rich legacy as a horde shooter and developer Tripwire Interactive has gone hard on the horde part, practically drowning you in enemies at all times. There's usually a swarm of Zeds pushing at you from every angle, clogging up your field of view and forcing you to fight on the enemies' terms rather than your own. The game is at its best when you're on the back foot, low on ammo and hoofing it between enclosed corridors and debris-strewn courtyards.
