So here’s the thing, I stumbled into Killing Floor 3—don’t ask me why, I just did—and man, this game is a ride. Imagine a world, like 70 years later (we’re talking 2091-ish), where this bigwig company, Horzine, cooks up a bunch of monsters to kinda take over. Anyway, Nightfall rebels are the only ones stepping up to the plate.
Now, I jumped in as one of these Nightfall folks. Apparently, it’s all about teaming up with five others to tackle these Zeds (that’s what they call the monsters, who knows why). Funny thing, there’s this base called The Stronghold. It’s like the ultimate geek-out zone. You get to tinker with weapons, run through tutorials, the works. Yeah, single-player first—kind of easing you into the madness before you dive deep into multiplayer.
It’s crazy. I remember when the_nmac reviewed the whole Killing Floor Double Feature like, five years ago? Time flies when you’re dodging virtual death, I guess. But now, we’re on PS5. Super sleek.
Oh, and controls? Boy, they’re a mix of mind-boggling and oh-so-natural. Left stick to move, right stick to look—I could go on, but you get it. Jump, sprint, dash—flashlights, sliding, all these moves feel kinda familiar if you’ve ever held a controller.
You’re in a battle groove when suddenly, you’re thinking about the Trader menu. Like, just casually buying better weapons while dodging chaos. It’s not just shooting though; customizing your skills is vital too. Wanna tank damage and not die instantly? There’s a weird perk for that. Not sure why, but it feels oddly comforting.
When you talk trophies, imagine a laundry list of wild tasks. Heal 500 HP here, give out Dosh there, and before you know it, you’re gunning for that Platinum trophy. It’s this whole checklist thing, but somehow, it doesn’t get boring. Keeps you coming back, I’ll admit.
Anyway, back to the game itself (because random tangent): Killing Floor 3 is unleashed on PS5, and it’s going for $39.99. If you want the bling version, there’s this Elite Nightfall Edition for almost double. It’s like upgrading your ice cream cone but with digital goodies. And hey, some shadow-themed gear too.
That’s it. That’s my unfiltered ramble through the world of Killing Floor 3. Worth every buck if you ask me, but what do I know? I’m just here for the chaos and the chance to shoot some Zeds. Catch it while you can.
