If you have a hankering to hunt zeds in a nautical location, we have an announcement for you: in today's PC Gaming Show(opens in new tab), developer Tripwire Interactive showed off the latest update headed to Killing Floor 2 this summer, Tidal Terror.
In Tidal Terror you'll find yourself in the precarious position of being surrounded by gory specimens while out at sea, alongside an arsenal of new guns and gadgets to protect yourself with.
