　⚫︎　Killing Floor 3 faces a delay, announced just weeks before its intended March 25 launch. Tripwire Interactive shared the news on Bluesky, pointing to player feedback from a recent closed beta as the key factor.

“After reviewing feedback from our closed beta, we realized we fell short of expectations,” Tripwire stated. The developer is dedicated to ensuring Killing Floor 3 balances bold innovation with the series’ core identity.

No new release date has been set, but the game is still slated for release later this year.
