changedBeginning life as a prototype, it quickly became the team's favorite 'torture test'. It’s a claustrophobic, high-intensity map where space is a luxury and retreat isn't an option. We’re polishing it up because you deserve a place that forces you to hold your ground and make every trap count.
addedAre you prepared? The first thing players will notice is that this is a tight space, with little room to retreat, so you better be ready to hold your ground. As the match continues, the forward and mid areas become more untenable with new avenues opening for the Zeds to reach you from. Strategic use of traps and tools will be key, but keep your eyes out, there is something more to be discovered here.

Hello everyone,

You recently uncovered the existence of Onslaught, a new map coming to Killing Floor 3 in the near future.

Beginning life as a prototype, it quickly became the team's favorite 'torture test'. It’s a claustrophobic, high-intensity map where space is a luxury and retreat isn't an option. We’re polishing it up because you deserve a place that forces you to hold your ground and make every trap count.

Are you prepared? The first thing players will notice is that this is a tight space, with little room to retreat, so you better be ready to hold your ground. As the match continues, the forward and mid areas become more untenable with new avenues opening for the Zeds to reach you from. Strategic use of traps and tools will be key, but keep your eyes out, there is something more to be discovered here.

We hope you’ll enjoy it as much as we have, and the team has already been looking at other prototypes with new gameplay elements we can bring forward in the future. Expect Onslaught to head your way in the near future, before the start of Season 4, later this summer!

We’ve been reading every single response from our community surveys. You’ve made it clear that you want more difficulty options, and called out specific quality-of-life improvements. These are the items we are acting on.

In the coming weeks we’ll be sharing details on the big additions, Quality of Life improvements and more including but not limited to:

  • New Perk: Gunslinger

    • Featuring 4 new sets of dualie primaries, a new sidearm, gadget and grenade

  • Dualies Drop 2: featuring the remaining original sidearms as dual wieldable

  • New Map: Rig

  • New Boss: Moorcroft

  • New Difficulty: Suicidal

Along with a plethora of enhancements including: being able to join a friends party from the main menu, picking your tier 3 weapon upgrade while crafting, and crafting material exchange! A big thank you to all those who participated in our community surveys, as those helped guide where to best focus our efforts.

And don’t worry, we’ve seen the call for those wanting more challenge! There are some exciting surprises ahead and we can’t wait to share even more details with you soon and post Season 4. We look forward to seeing you in chat. And as always, keep up the feedback and more in the forums and discord.
