![]() How does the saying go? “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” Oh, how very true in this case! Fans will also meet the representatives of a small activist group, seeking evidence of corporate evil by infiltrating a secret Horzine lab. So, in the movie fans will learn a bit more about Horzine Biotech and some of their earlier experimentation. ![]() And that starting weapon you played with in Wave 1 of Killing Floor 1, that returns in the sequel - check the first weapon picked up in Uncovered. And look for some of your favorite firearms: the classic British infantry weapon in the hands of the Horzine security troopers, for example, that will feature in Killing Floor 2. So, look for familiar content in Uncovered that you will see run through the existing Killing Floor, through to Killing Floor 2. Simple cloning of simple specimens, even though they are violent and aggressive enough to rip humans apart. Actually you will, but not until Boss waves…īut it all starts with the technology lurking in Uncovered. At least players won’t have to face Zeds with guns. Luckily for humanity, even though the cloning may have gone off in a bad direction, at least that weaponizing had only got as far as bladed weapons, chainsaws, and flamethrowers. The more dangerous specimens, with the more esoteric abilities such as wall-climbing and stealth tech are created and weaponized elsewhere. Except everyone just calls them “Zeds.” The new Biotics Lab will show you how the base Zed (the Clot) is grown, fed, and processed, fun details of their anatomy and experimentation. They are, after all, “genetic specimens,” not zombies, created out of a plan for genetically-engineered and cloned super-soldiers. In the new version in Killing Floor 2 you’ll be able to see much more of how the Zeds are made. A massive outbreak of specimens which the players in the first game were attempting to contain - unsuccessfully, as it turned out - with the country largely devastated.Īnd it didn’t help that they set up multiple facilities, improving on them each time. Which was unfortunate, as they clearly hadn’t thought to prevent the Zeds breaking OUT and rampaging all over the UK, which is what triggered the events of Killing Floor 1. All they did was move the lab elsewhere and make it much harder to break in. It would be nice to think that Horzine had learned the lesson from the security footage and stopped making evil creatures. The corpses removed, survivors paid off, and other evidence duly expunged. The events in Uncovered are just a small outbreak (just a few victims, none of them very innocent), contained after the event by Horzine’s internal security services and duly cleaned up. After the events you’ll see in Uncovered clearly Horzine needed to move its facilities elsewhere. For example, the lab you see in the video is a fore-runner of the much more high-tech Biotics Lab that will be seen in the game. Besides being a fun little horror film unto itself, Killing Floor: Uncovered sports a number of tie-ins to Killing Floor 2, both obvious and subtle. ![]() ![]() When we started working on the script for what would become Killing Floor: Uncovered, we decided to set the scene a few years before the start of the first Killing Floor game. After a brief respite, more outbreaks have launched in mainland Europe - such as “Burning Paris” – and the whole mass slaughter has kicked into a higher gear. By the time of Killing Floor 2, the UK has been overrun and very few have escaped alive. We thought it would be a cool project and a great opportunity to tell more story in the run-up to the launch of Killing Floor 2 this year on PS4.įor those not familiar with the Killing Floor back-story, the original game began in the UK with players being thrust into the midst of an outbreak caused by genetically engineered creatures escaping from Horzine facilities. Following our announcement at PlayStation Experience, we wanted to show a wider view of the game’s universe in the form of a short movie, which you can watch above. ![]()
