The long-awaited sequel to Killing Floor 2 is on the verge of coming out. The first KF was heralded as a success when it sold over a million units back in 2012, and its sequel was much bigger and better. Now we are on the cusp of the third installment, and here you will find the release date and time countdown map for when Killing Floor 3 will come out on PS5, Xbox, and PC Steam, and you will also find all of the pre-order bonuses and everything else you need to know.
Killing Floor 3 release date
The release date for Killing Floor 3 is July 24th. This is almost 10-years after KF2 came out back in 2016.
It will be available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam. If you are a fan on Xbox, the game is not coming to Game Pass, and there’s no news on whether it will join the subscription service in the future.
Regardless of platform you plan to play on, the good news is that you will be able to slay hordes of monsters teaming up with friends on any system thanks to crossplay.
When does Killing Floor 3 come out?
The release time for when Killing Floor 3 will come out is 6AM PT/9AM ET/2PM BST on July 24th. All these hours come courtesy of an official release time map shared by the developer on X.
It should be a simultaneous release across PS5, Xbox, and PC for Steam. The PSN store does list the game as unlocking at 1PM BST, however, that could simply be an error, and we’d recommend heeding the release time map from Tripwire.
