Hello everyone,
Players have now had their first experience in the Abusement Park (here to stay), and it’s collection of Summer Sideshow Zeds (who have retired for the year). Another aspect of the game that was introduced with the Summer Sideshow was the weekly outbreaks which will continue to run on rotation, changing each week and rotating back in. But “what is next”? We are glad you asked.
As many of you have seen by now the engine team is hard at work to bring the game to new audiences on the Xbox, while the gameplay and content teams have been working towards more Killing Floor fun for all. Today we want to start sweeping back the curtain and give you a taste of what is to come.
We currently have two major content updates planned for the rest of this year bring new maps and weapons, and what’s that? A jolly surprise for the good zed hunters of the world! But more on that later. For the next content update the team is targeting a nightmarish new map and two new weapons - one an old favorite, the other, something new to love.
But that isn’t all. We’ve been seeing the calls for the King Fleshpound to make a return outside of Poundemonium and we are happy to announce the design team is looking into that now and working out how the return of the King (Fleshpound) can be incorporated into the standard rotation of boss events. And he might just bring along his new “pint” sized friends.
To be quite clear, earlier this year we announced we were working towards a brand new boss, and that is still the case. However, it will still be some time before that effort will come to fruition. We hope players will enjoy the new variety at the end game that these two additions will bring.
As we get closer to the next big update we’ll be adding more concrete details about some of these items so stay tuned!
And for our Killing Floor fans who are Vive owners you can expect to see more Killing Floor: Incursion news as we hope to ship a version on Steam later this year. You can find out what the Incursion team is up to now over here!
