Subject: KKnD - Krush, Kill 'N Destroy updates incoming
We are excited to announce major updates to the Krush Kill ‘N Destroy series nearly 20 years after the games were first released. In collaboration with a team led by talented KKND series modder Andre ‘IceReaper’ Mohren, Krush Kill ‘N Destroy Xtreme (1997) and Krush Kill ‘N Destroy 2: Krossfire (1998) will add modern online PvP multiplayer to Steam and GOG.
In the original releases, you battled tooth, claw, and tentacle, choosing to join one of several factions as they duke it out for control of precious oil. In story campaign modes, you’ll complete dozens of missions and command more than 50 air, land, and amphibious units and advance across harsh, unforgiving and barely hospitable terrain.
In addition to the restoration of multiplayer features, the new patches will introduce additional display resolutions, game balance improvements, improved support for mods, additional playable languages, and fixes to known issues with the previous releases.
An opt-in Open Beta for all owners of Krush Kill ‘N Destroy Xtreme and Krush Kill ‘N Destroy 2: Krossfire will begin in May 2026, with the full release of the updates scheduled for June 2026.
Current owners of Krush Kill ‘N Destroy Xtreme and Krush Kill ‘N Destroy 2: Krossfire will receive the updates as free updates to the existing games. The games on Steam and GOG will increase in price from $6.99 USD to $9.99 each when the Open Beta period begins in May.
Included in the major update patches for the games will be:
Online multiplayer support on modern systems through Steam first with GOG Galaxy support and Steam/GOG crossplay to follow at a later date.
Support for additional playable resolutions up to 4K
Improved modding support, including an update to the KKND2 map editor for compatibility with 64-bit operating systems
Restored original HD sound effects
Additional language versions playable through Steam and GOG:
Krush Kill ‘N Destroy Xtreme: German and French
Krush Kill ‘N Destroy 2: Krossfire: German, French, and more languages to be announced
New launchers for tweaking game settings
Fixes to crash bugs and other known issues
The KKND series updates will be available in June 2026 on PC via Steam and GOG.
Ohhh that's neat! I mucked around with the demo of 2 on the playstation for a bit but never got it; played KKnD 2 on GOG for a bit; new resolutions and such will be most welcome!
