New Killing Floor 2 Weapons Include RPG That Can Fire Backwards

Killing Floor 2 is all about high-powered guns and zombie destruction, and the new additions to its arsenal are no exception. Developer Tripwire recently announced that it is bringing several new weapons to the game.

Coming in the next big content update to the game, these weapons include a pistol that shoots explosive rounds. It's meant as a close-range firearm, shooting the projectiles in a spread. It can also launch a grenade instead of the explosive rounds, which gives the gun a little more range.

Tripwire is also adding an RPG to the game. The developer has given it the possibility to shoot backwards and explode behind the player. It's not clear yet how exactly this happens.

Additionally, Killing Floor 2 is getting C4 and a grenade launcher.

These new weapons are a part of the Incinerate 'n' Detonate content update, which also includes several weapons that focus on fire damage. Among these are a flamethrower, Molotov cocktails, and a pistol and trench gun with incendiary rounds. Tripwire hasn't announced a release date for the update yet.

Killing Floor 2 is currently available in early access on Steam, although it'll eventually come to PlayStation 4. If you've been playing the early access version of the game, your stats won't reset when it gets a full release. You can read our early access review of Killing Floor 2 here.
