sports_esports Gameplay & Mechanics
Companions/Followers
  • Co-op Teammates: The game is built around a team of up to six human players. Teamwork is essential for survival, requiring players to cover each other, share resources (Dosh), and combine their specialist abilities to overcome the horde.
    Human (Player)
  • Co-op Players (Online): Up to 3 other players can join the host's game in online co-op. They control their own Aiden characters with their respective progression.

colorize Combat & Gear
Weapons Overview
  • Assault Rifles: Automatic Rifles
    Versatile firearms that are effective at most ranges. Includes futuristic versions of classic weapons, now highly customizable with various attachments.
  • Shotguns: Close-Quarters Weapons
    Devastating at close range, capable of clearing paths through hordes of smaller Zeds. Includes pump-action, semi-auto, and explosive variants.
  • Melee Weapons: Blades, Blunt Objects
    High-risk, high-reward weapons for when the Zeds get too close. The parry system from KF2 returns with refinements.
  • Explosives: Grenade Launchers, RPGs
    Weapons designed for maximum area-of-effect damage, ideal for taking down large Zeds like Fleshpounds and Scrakes.
  • Specialist Weapons: Flamethrowers, Healing Darts
    Unique weapons tied to specific specialist roles, such as the Firebug's flamethrower or the Field Medic's healing dart rifle.
  • Melee Weapons (One-Handed & Two-Handed): Various (Axes, Maces, Swords, Machetes, Hammers, Knives, Pipes, Bats, Knuckledusters)
    The primary combat tools. Weapons have rarity tiers (Common to Artifact), durability, and can be enhanced with craftable mods (e.g., adding elemental damage like fire/shock, increasing impact, critical chance, or durability). Different weapon types have varying attack speeds, damage, and special properties (e.g., blunt weapons good against armor, slashing against unarmored).
  • Bows & Crossbows: Ranged (Silent, Precision)
    Silent ranged weapons ideal for stealth and taking out enemies from a distance. Various arrow/bolt types can be crafted (standard, fire, shock, explosive, poison, UV). The PK Crossbow is a powerful late-game reward.
  • Throwables: Tactical/Explosive/Utility
    Craftable items like Molotov Cocktails, DIY Grenades, UV Bars (temporary UV light source), Decoys (to distract infected), Mines, C4, Throwing Knives.
  • Gear & Consumables (Boosters): Utility/Buffs
    Boosters provide temporary enhancements to combat, parkour, health regeneration, or resistances. Medkits are essential for healing. Craftable using herbs and other resources.
  • UV Flashlight: Defensive Tool
    An essential tool, especially at night. Its UV light weakens and repels Volatiles and other light-sensitive infected, creating temporary safe opportunities. Can be upgraded for intensity and duration.
  • Firearms (Limited): Ranged (Ballistic - Rare)
    While the game is primarily melee-focused due to ammo scarcity in The City, some limited firearms like makeshift pistols or shotguns (e.g., 'Boomstick') can be found or crafted, but ammo is extremely rare and they are generally less sustainable than melee or bows.
Armor / Gear Sets
  • Body Armor: A purchasable item from the Trader pod. It provides an extra layer of health that must be depleted before Zeds can damage the player's main health pool. It can be repaired and replenished between waves.
  • Gear Pieces (Head, Chest, Gloves, Bracers, Pants, Shoes): Players equip six pieces of gear, each belonging to a specific class (Tank, Brawler, Medic, Ranger) that provides bonuses tailored to that playstyle (e.g., Tank gear offers more damage resistance, Brawler gear more melee damage). Gear has rarity tiers (Common to Artifact) and provides stats like armor, damage resistance, and specific perks (e.g., +% damage at night, reduced stamina cost for parkour). Gear can be found, bought, or earned as quest rewards.
  • Cosmetic Outfits (Transmog): A transmogrification system allows players to change the appearance of their equipped gear to look like any other gear piece they have collected, without altering its stats. Many full cosmetic outfits are also available through events, DLC, or store purchases.
Outfits/Customization
  • Cosmetic Customization: A deep character customization system allows players to unlock and equip hundreds of cosmetic items, including different helmets, body outfits, backpacks, and accessories to create their own unique Nightfall specialist.
  • Weapon Skins: Players can unlock and apply a wide variety of cosmetic skins and charms to their weapons.
  • Gear Sets (Tank, Brawler, Medic, Ranger): Players equip six pieces of gear (Head, Torso, Gloves, Wrists, Legs, Feet). Each piece belongs to a class (Tank, Brawler, Medic, Ranger) providing specific gameplay bonuses (e.g., damage reduction, melee damage, healing effectiveness, ranged damage). Gear has visual variety based on its class, rarity, and faction origin (PK, Survivor, Renegade aesthetic). A transmog system allows players to change equipped gear's appearance to any owned style.
  • Cosmetic Outfits & Skins: Full cosmetic outfits that change Aiden's entire appearance without affecting stats are available through game progression, events, DLC, or store purchases (e.g., Nightrunner outfit, Peacekeeper outfit, various themed bundles).
  • Weapon Charms: Small cosmetic charms that can be attached to melee weapons for personalization.
trending_up Progression & Upgrades
Skills & Progression

The classic Perk system returns but has been expanded. Each Specialist (class) has a unique skill tree, allowing for deep customization of abilities and playstyles. A new weapon upgrade system allows players to enhance their favorite guns with new attachments and properties. The in-match economy of earning 'Dosh' to buy better weapons from the Trader pod remains a core part of the gameplay loop.

Aiden has two main skill trees: Combat (unlocking new melee moves, weapon proficiency, and toughness) and Parkour (unlocking advanced traversal abilities like wall runs, slides, and improved jumps). Skill points are earned by performing combat actions and parkour maneuvers respectively. Inhibitors, found in GRE containers, are used to upgrade Health and Stamina, which also gate access to higher-tier skills. Crafting allows Aiden to create weapon mods, consumables (medkits, boosters), and throwable items using scavenged resources. Blueprints for crafting are found or earned.

public World & Exploration
World & Level Design

The game features a variety of battlegrounds, from claustrophobic urban environments to sprawling industrial complexes. Maps are designed with the series' signature focus on choke points, verticality, and strategic locations for welding doors and holding out against the horde. The move to Unreal Engine 5 allows for more detailed and destructible environments.

The City of Villedor is significantly larger than Harran from the first game, divided into two main districts: Old Villedor (a more classic European-style area with smaller buildings, easier for early parkour) and the Central Loop (a modern downtown area with skyscrapers, requiring advanced parkour tools like the grappling hook and paraglider). There are also surrounding areas, GRE Quarantines, and Dark Hollows. The map is dense with verticality, encouraging rooftop traversal.

Playable Vehicles
  • None
    The game is focused on on-foot, arena-style combat within its detailed maps. There are no controllable player vehicles.
  • Paraglider: Personal Traversal Gear (Aerial)
    An essential tool unlocked progression, allowing Aiden to glide from high places, cover large distances quickly, and navigate the verticality of the Central Loop. Can be upgraded for better maneuverability and features like a UV light attachment.
  • Grappling Hook: Personal Traversal Gear (Utility)
    A versatile tool used to swing across gaps, pull Aiden towards anchor points, and aid in climbing. It functions more like a physics-based swing rather than a point-and-zip line in some games. Upgradable for range and functionality.
  • Traversal on Foot (Parkour): Player Locomotion
    The primary mode of movement. Dying Light 2 features an advanced and fluid parkour system, allowing Aiden to run, jump, climb, slide, wall-run, and use various environmental elements to navigate The City's rooftops and streets with agility.
Notable Fauna/Mounts
N/A
  • Infected Humans (Various Stages & Types - Virals, Biters, Goons, Demolishers, Volatiles, etc.): Homo sapiens infectus (Harran Virus)
    Primary Antagonistic Force, Ranging from common fodder to elite/boss-level threats.
  • Dogs (Feral/Infected - Howlers): Canis familiaris (Infected)
    Hostile, Howlers alert other infected to Aiden's presence.
  • Rats & Crows: Rodentia / Corvidae
    Ambient wildlife, can sometimes indicate nearby loot or danger, generally non-hostile but can be startled.
  • Deer (Mentioned/Implied in hunting for resources, but not live interactive animals typically): Cervidae
    Primarily a source for crafting resources (leather, bones) through looting or specific contexts rather than live hunting encounters in the city.
book Story & Characters
Main Characters
  • Nightfall Specialists: Playable Characters

help_outline FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
  • Q: What is Killing Floor 3?
    A: It is the third main installment in the co-op FPS series. Players team up in groups of up to six to fight off waves of bio-engineered monsters called Zeds in a dystopian future.
  • Q: How many players can play together?
    A: The game supports up to 6-player online co-op.
  • Q: What engine does the game use?
    A: Killing Floor 3 is built from the ground up in Unreal Engine 5.
  • Q: Does Killing Floor 3 have cross-play?
    A: Yes, the game supports full cross-platform play between PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
  • Q: Is Dying Light 2 a direct sequel to the first Dying Light?
    A: Yes, Dying Light 2 Stay Human is set approximately 20 years after the events of the original Dying Light and its 'The Following' expansion. While it features a new protagonist (Aiden) and setting (The City of Villedor), it exists in the same universe and references past events and characters like Spike.
  • Q: How important are choices in Dying Light 2?
    A: Choices are a significant gameplay mechanic. Aiden's decisions during main quests and some side quests can have major consequences, affecting faction control over city districts (which changes the environment with faction-specific parkour tools or traps), the fate of characters, and the overall narrative outcome. The game features multiple ending variations.
  • Q: What is the Day/Night cycle like?
    A: The Day/Night cycle is a core feature. Daytime is generally safer for exploration and completing objectives, with fewer aggressive infected. Night-time is extremely dangerous, with more powerful infected like Volatiles roaming the streets. However, night offers increased XP gain and access to specific locations (like Dark Hollows and Forsaken Stores) that contain valuable loot but are heavily infested during the day.
  • Q: How does the infection mechanic work for Aiden?
    A: Aiden is infected with the Harran Virus. He wears a biomarker that tracks his immunity levels. When in darkness or away from UV light sources for too long, his immunity drops, and if it reaches zero, he will turn into a Viral. Players must manage this by using UV lamps, UV shrooms, inhibitors, or returning to safe zones before turning.
  • Q: Are there firearms in Dying Light 2?
    A: The base game is heavily focused on melee combat and bows due to a story premise that firearms and ammunition became extremely scarce after The Fall. While some makeshift firearms like the 'Boomstick' (a craftable shotgun) exist, and more traditional firearms were added in later updates (like the 'Firearms Update' in early 2024), melee remains the primary combat style.
build Technical Details
Graphics & Visual Fidelity
N/A

Powered by Techland's C-Engine, the game showcases a detailed and dilapidated urban environment. It features advanced lighting, dense geometry, volumetric fog, and detailed character/infected models. Ray tracing options (Global Illumination, Shadows, Reflections, Ambient Occlusion) are available on PC and current-gen consoles, significantly enhancing visual fidelity but also being very demanding.

Sound design emphasizes visceral melee impacts, distinct infected vocalizations, and the atmospheric tension of night-time exploration. The Biomarker's ticking sound adds to the infection mechanic's urgency.

User Interface (UI/UX)
N/A

First-person HUD displaying health, stamina, infection timer (biomarker), equipped weapon/tool, and objective markers. A compass aids navigation. Crafting and inventory menus are accessible. Skill trees are visually represented. The day-night cycle and infection status are prominent UI elements.

Accessibility Options

info_outline Other Game Notes
  • OFFICIAL AND EXTRAPOLATED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for Killing Floor 3. This information is based on the official PC specifications from developer Tripwire Interactive, adapted to the requested JSON structure. As a title built on Unreal Engine 5, the game is demanding, particularly on the CPU for the recommended tier. Laptop and future-generation GPU listings are extrapolated based on performance benchmarks and technical analyses.
  • Laptop Performance Note: Laptop versions of the listed desktop GPUs require comparable performance, which is highly dependent on the laptop's TGP (Total Graphics Power) and thermal design. For a fast-paced, horde-based shooter like Killing Floor 3, a laptop with a high-TGP GPU and a robust cooling system is critical to maintain a stable framerate during intense combat.
  • Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: A high TGP is essential. A low-power variant of a recommended GPU may struggle to maintain a consistent 60 FPS, especially when the screen is filled with Zeds and particle effects.
  • Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: Unreal Engine 5 can heavily stress both the CPU and GPU. An advanced cooling solution will be necessary to prevent thermal throttling during chaotic, multi-player sessions.
  • Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: The game's AI and physics for a large number of enemies will be CPU-intensive. A capable laptop CPU with good power delivery is needed to handle these demands without creating a bottleneck.
  • Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: A MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus is highly recommended to minimize latency and ensure the GPU's full performance is utilized, which is vital for a fast-paced first-person shooter.
  • Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech: The game officially supports a full suite of upscaling technologies: NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, Intel XeSS, and Epic's native TSR. The official performance targets explicitly mention the use of upscaling to achieve the desired framerates.
  • Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: As a UE5 title, the game includes advanced graphical features. The optional Lumen Global Illumination and Reflections will have the most significant performance impact. Adjusting these, along with shadows and effects quality, will be key to tuning performance.
  • Game Name: Killing Floor 3
  • Official system requirements from Techland. Performance can vary significantly depending on specific hardware, settings, areas in-game (especially dense city areas), and background applications. An SSD is strongly recommended.
