Default Killing Floor has sold a million!


Tripwire Interactive are thrilled to announce that Killing Floor has sold more than 1 million copies on PC - and is still selling strongly! This is a major achievement from any game studio as few games, even multi-million-dollar AAA titles, ever sell over 1 million copies on PC. As a truly independent outfit who have funded ourselves all the way, we are particularly proud of the achievement. Our thanks go to all the developers of the Killing Floor mod and everyone on the team here at Tripwire Interactive, who's continued support has made the game such a huge success. We would also like to thank all the members of the community who have made maps and other add-ons for the game, with the Killing Floor SDK. And, most importantly, we offer our thanks to all of the fans and everyone who has bought the game over the past two years and helped make Killing Floor the cultural phenomenon that it is today.

As everyone loves stats, here are some of the important ones:
  • 1.1 MILLION copies of Killing Floor sold on PC in 2 and a half years
  • Nearly 2 million Killing Floor DLC packs sold
  • 45 MILLION hours of Killing Floor played to date
  • 440 MILLION Zeds have been dispatched in Achievements alone - including more than a quarter-million Christmas Santa
  • Zeds are being killed by you at the rate of over 20,000 an hour!
  • Hundreds of custom maps have been created by the community
But we're not just here to brag! In fact we've decided to do something very special to celebrate the 1 million copies milestone. For the next three days we're practically giving the game away with a massive discount of 85% as the "Midweek Madness" feature on Steam this week. That is the cheapest we've ever sold the game for. If you have friends who don't yet play the game, now is the time to educate them on the joys of Killing Floor. You all go on playing the games we make for PC and we'll go on making and supporting them!

And our thanks to ^dust-bite on Deviant Art for the inspiration for the image - here is his (very cool) original: http://dust-bite.deviantart.com/art/...MONE-186888394

Congratulations Tripwire ! I'm still not tired to hunt Zeds after 2 years, and I'm happy to know KF community keeps growing.

Congratulations, TWI!

This is the best co-op PC game ever made! I hope you don't stop now on supporting the game, so we can wait for a new balance patch, maybe some new stuff, and, of course, KF2!

You now realize so much dosh has been donated from players to other players that it is more than enough to call KF "3D British Currency Simulator".

Most people say today is Valentines Day. I say today is the day the Champions League starts.

Forever alone ;_;

Default Congrats!

One of the best zombie (specimen!) games I've ever played. I've pumped way too many hours into this game... I even feel kinda bad for only paying £7.50 for it on a weekend Steam deal a year or two ago... thats almost a penny an hour for me!!!

Cheers Tripwire!!!

I am actually surprised that it took this long, well done TWI, you deserve this more than anything.

It seems as though the Goliaths of this world, have finally met their match


DOSH!
