The level design itself is pretty interesting as while each map offers a fairly robust arena like area to explore, the intricate halls, doorways, and designs of the map lead to little nooks and ways to turn the tide of combat, even from just a positional viewpoint. Yes it’s dark and dreary, but the lighting here adds to the experience. For a game about killing monsters and other undead creatures, it’s a surprisingly colorful game which surprised me.

Some are old farmhouses, another in the streets of Paris, or in a biological lab. With plenty of levels to choose or vote from, the battlefields stay interesting and fresh. Aside from this and some players versus player elements possible in MP, what is seen on both modes is the same.

Offline allows the same levels to be played, just alone. Players can chose from either online modes or offline single player. The game is a lot of fun, but even more so with friends. After the last round is finished, a boss round occurs, offering a huge monstrosity to combat and take down, presented with a huge life bar to diminish. It’s very easy to get cornered and overwhelmed.

As each wave progressing, the enemy types and aggression seem to get worse. Every time it happens, I smile, though it can also be a moment to catch my breath as the round get intense. During fights, combat will sometimes enter a slow motion state if a ton of damage is done, or perhaps a grenade goes off. I also appreciated that if I didn’t want to shop and just needed something quick, there is an auto purchase that will choose the selections for the player, a nice element. Ending a wave left me always rushing to the container to grab what I could before the next round. The different classes start with different weapons but as the waves of enemies are complete, points are earned that can be used in the shop containers. Fighting can range from using high powered automatic weapons, to up close melee. Hordes of enemies rushing to the player, the option to run only last so long. Its intense, feels responsive, and the carnage that ensues is fantastic. I’m not a huge fan of horde mode alone but there were plenty of reasons why I ended up ultimately enjoying my time with the game.Ĭombat is in first person, after picking a specific class to fight with, the game spares no time throwing the player into its crazy survival action. At this point and time, either players will be interested or not. Similar to something more akin to the zombie’s mode in countless Call of Duty games. Killing Floor 2 is a balls-to-the-wall horde mode experience. There is little details and tidbits to figure out what transpired to make the world as it is, but there are no cinematics or even a campaign to speak of. I wanted to get that out of the way because it’s something a few folks might assume and ultimately walk away disappointed. Dead Zedsįirst and foremost, Killing Floor 2 is not about story or exposition. Killing Floor 2 is a particular style of game for a particular genre and those that love horde mode like experiences, will find a lot to love here.

Xbox One review copy provided by the publisher.Do you like killing zombies, creatures, and other monstrosities? How about first person shooters? If answering yes to either of this two questions, Killing Floor 2 just might be the latest game on PS4 to get the shooter juices flowing.

Premium clothing and loot box keys are overpriced and not compelling.

Text-based chat presets are poorly mapped to the controller.

Only two bosses to face at the end of 15 levels make those encounters highly repetitive.

15 expertly-designed levels keep the survival experience fresh and exciting.10 distinct classes to level, each providing something different.An excellent co-op experience that's also playable solo.The retail version is exclusive to GameStop in North America. Killing Floor 2 costs $39.99 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Steam. Tripwire has announced Xbox One X enhancements, too, which will keep the game going even longer. With tons of classes to level and weapons to wield, Killing Floor 2 has some serious staying power. The 15 levels are all excellent and memorable (despite the lack of environmental interactivity), providing the sense of variety that the bosses do not. The game naturally encourages everyone to stick together in large or small groups, watching each other's backs and using class abilities to help the team. If you like tough cooperative experiences, it really is a joy. Killing Floor 2 is a rare game focused almost entirely on the horde mode experience – teams of players fighting waves of monsters for the joy of it. Horde modes are typically bonus modes in a larger game, and outside of the Gears of War and Sniper Elite series, they tend to be not very special.
