How co-op works
Six-player online co-op sends a squad through escalating Zed waves and a final boss. Players combine weapon-focused Perks and talent paths, cover complementary combat roles, and exploit Zed Time while smarter enemies coordinate attacks to weaken anyone left unsupported.
About this game
Killing Floor 2 drops you and up to five teammates into relentless wave-based combat against hordes of grotesque Zeds, the result of a horrifying cloning experiment gone wrong. This is true co-op carnage where survival depends on coordination, with a 12-player versus mode offering a competitive twist.

Each match revolves around clearing waves of increasingly deadly enemies using a diverse arsenal of weapons, tactical perks, and class abilities. The visceral gunplay and over-the-top gore make every firefight intense, while teamwork becomes essential as you revive downed allies, share resources, and coordinate crowd control during chaotic last stands.
Killing Floor 2 supports online co-op for up to six players and online PvP for 12, with full controller support and Steam Workshop integration. The wave structure creates high-pressure sessions where communication and quick decision-making separate victory from a brutal wipeout, making it ideal for groups that thrive on party-style chaos and adrenaline-fueled teamwork.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many players can team up in co-op mode?
Killing Floor 2 supports up to 6 players in online co-op. You'll work together to survive waves of Zeds, revive downed teammates, and coordinate your defenses against increasingly brutal enemy hordes.
Can I play this game solo or do I need a full team?
You can play solo, but the game is designed around co-op teamwork. While it's possible to tackle waves alone, the experience really shines with a coordinated group since you'll need to revive allies, share resources, and handle crowd control together.
What's the versus mode and how does it differ from co-op?
The versus mode is a 12-player PvP experience where players can fight as both humans and Zeds. It's a competitive twist on the core gameplay, offering a different flavor from the standard 6-player co-op wave survival mode.
Does this game require voice chat or heavy coordination?
While you can play without voice chat, Killing Floor 2 benefits greatly from communication. Coordinating perks, calling out threats, managing revives, and planning crowd control during intense waves all work better when your team can talk, especially during chaotic last stands.
