Today, publisher and developer Tripwire Interactive celebrates the 10-year anniversary of the Killing Floor franchise. Since the horror based co-op first-person shooter first launched on May 14, 2009 for PC on Steam, the Killing Floor franchise, including the original Killing Floor, Killing Floor 2, and Killing Floor: Incursion, has sold nearly 10 million units, earned over $100 million in franchise revenue, and has been played by over 15 million unique players worldwide.
Speaking to VentureBeat last year, Tripwire Interactive Vice President Alan Wilson attributes some of the long term success of Killing Floor to the studio’s efforts in providing regular and free content updates to players and Tripwire’s roots in the modding scene. “With Killing Floor, we’ve added all sorts of new things over the years,” said Wilson. “We started with seasonal events, which have been wildly successful. We also introduced new weapons, new game modes, new characters, etc.”
To-date, Killing Floor 2 players on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One have seen numerous free seasonal updates that make painting the town red with blood feel fresh, with over 49 new maps and 139 mad scientist weapons and more on the way.
To celebrate 10 years of Killing Floor, Tripwire Interactive has released a fun infographic highlighting some of the series’ major milestones and player achievements. PC players can also look forward to a major Tripwire Interactive Steam publisher sale that starts later today and runs through Monday, May 20, 2019. The Tripwire Steam Publisher Sale will include deep discounts on the entire Tripwire Interactive Steam catalog including last week’s Spring Content Update for Rising Storm 2: Vietnam.
The Killing Floor 10-year anniversary also arrives just ahead of the May 21 launch for Killing Floor: Double Feature. Bundling the bloodiest and best chapters from the Killing Floor universe for one great price, Killing Floor: Double Feature comes packed with more gory content than you can shake a disembodied leg at, including the best-selling, co-op, survival horror shooter Killing Floor 2 for PlayStation 4 and the haunting VR survival horror shooter Killing Floor: Incursion for PlayStation VR. The retail version of Killing Floor: Double Feature will also come fully loaded with the fan-favorite Mrs. Foster Playable Character DLC from Killing Floor 2, along with all the Seasonal Content released since the game launched, making it the perfect entry point for newcomers to the series that continues to engage players with regular, high-quality updates.
Killing Floor: Double Feature is developed and published digitally by Tripwire Interactive and is published at retail by Deep Silver for the PlayStation 4 Pro, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation VR.
