As a lover of horror games and zombie shooters like World War Z and Left 4 Dead (1 and 2), I was bound to stumble upon the Killing Floor franchise. It's been around since 2009, and both the first and second installments have good reviews. However, many fans of the game are quite unhappy with Killing Floor 3.
The latest installment in the franchise was released on July 24, 2025, and it already has mixed reviews on Steam just three days after release. This indicates that many players are dissatisfied with the content or gameplay of Killing Floor 3. This is comparatively lower than the great reviews the first two games received.

Many fans were disappointed and voiced their concerns that the game wasn't worth the price, especially given its current state. The most concerning aspect was the performance issues, despite some players having decent PC specifications. There were also reports of crashes from players, as well as unstable frame rates overall. This is a significant issue, as you want a playable game for fans and newcomers to enjoy.
Others commented on the game's limited versatility in terms of weapons and perks. The missing chat function is also one of the most significant problems the game faces, as it is a multiplayer game. Not only that, but the queue for matchmaking isn't consistent. There are times when you can queue right away, and other times when you'll have to wait for minutes. There's also no way to cancel matchmaking at the moment, and you'll have to go back to the main menu or title screen.

Many feel that the game was "fully" released despite having incomplete content, and see it more as an early access game. Some players deemed it a "hollow shell of its predecessors," feeling that the developers focused more on the battle pass than the actual gameplay.
Others said that Killing Floor 3 was fun, with gore and guts flying everywhere, but not without the performance issues. However, there were lucky gamers who were able to play the game without any hiccups. Players have hope that the game will be good with patches and fixes, but many of them cannot recommend it at the moment.
I'd suggest taking these comments from players with a pinch of salt and experiencing the game for yourself, as everyone's experience is often different.
