While Tripwire's ultra-violent yet charmingly self-aware first-person zombie shooter is still in early access, its steady improvement and refinement throughout 2015 has made it one of the year's biggest hits - giving PS4 owners good reason to be excited for its upcoming console launch. The premise is extremely simple - you and up to five other people take on wave after wave of mutated enemies across a range of eclectic grindhouse levels. Each level is capped off by a random boss encounter. The gameplay can be compared to Borderlands, with a comical (and very bloody) visual style and large arenas that offer multiple strategic stand-off points. There is a rich system of levelling-up and perks in Killing Floor, allowing you to essentially choose which class you want to be before each match, and the devs at Tripwire are constantly updating it with new perks, bosses and features. Killing Floor 2 is one of the most enjoyable, insanely violent shooters of the year, and a must-play for shooter fans with a bunch of friends to play alongside.
