Killing Floor 3 Delayed Just Before Release Following Troubled Beta Test

by Zoey Mar 15,2025

Killing Floor 3's release has been indefinitely delayed. Following recent beta testing, significant issues were uncovered, prompting the developers to halt the game's launch in its current form. Veteran players voiced concerns over changes to core gameplay mechanics, specifically the new system linking character classes to specific heroes—a departure from previous titles where class selection was independent of character choice. These criticisms were compounded by technical problems encountered during the beta, including bugs, inconsistent performance, and subpar graphics.

Weeks away from its scheduled release, the developers announced the delay, pushing the launch into sometime in 2025. Their focus will now be on resolving stability and performance issues, refining weapon mechanics, improving lighting, and enhancing overall graphics. While a comprehensive list of planned changes is yet to be released, the decision underscores a commitment to delivering a polished product, prioritizing quality over a rushed release.

While the delay is sure to disappoint some fans, many will likely appreciate the developers' dedication to upholding the Killing Floor legacy. Players eagerly await further updates detailing the progress made in addressing these issues and a confirmed release date.
