Killing Floor 3 Delayed Following Negative Beta Feedback

Tripwire Interactive postpones the release to address performance, gameplay, and design concerns raised by players.

Killing Floor 3, originally set for release on March 25, 2025, has been delayed to an unspecified date later this year.
The decision follows overwhelmingly negative feedback from the game's recent open beta, citing issues with performance, stability, UI/UX, and weapon mechanics.
Players criticized the beta for lacking the franchise's signature humor and horror tone, with some saying it felt disconnected from the series' roots.
Tripwire Interactive has announced plans for a post-launch update to allow players to independently select perk classes and characters, addressing a controversial design choice.
Refunds for preorders will vary by platform, with some being automatically canceled and refunded, while others require manual action by players.
