Summary

Killing Floor 2 has a TrueGG Rating of 88.8%: the positive share among 828 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 20+ hours, close to Steam's overall 88.3%. Players who really play it broadly agree with the headline number (all time: 91.0%).

Reviews written under 2 hours make up 7% of the total, and only 59% of them are positive. Some players bounce off early, but those who get past the opening rate it higher. Steam accepts refund requests within 2 hours of play and 14 days of purchase.

Beyond the first hours, approval is fairly even across playtime.

Negative reviews most often mention boredom, updates and the developers (less than at launch), and crashes and bugs. Positive reviews praise how fun it feels, 難易度, and community and co-op.

Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 86.7%, similar to all languages.

Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (88.7% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.

All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.

Counted from 402 recent negative and 600 positive reviews in Japanese and English, using our published topic dictionary. No AI is used. Topics overlap, so shares do not add up to 100%. Sarcasm and nuance are not detected, and this does not show cause and effect.How we count
