It's lucky that Christmas is coming, as otherwise nothing would be happening in the world of video games. Killing Floor developer Tripwire today announced the return of Twisted Christmas, an event which transforms the co-op survival FPS into a wintry horrorshow. This being the fourth such celebration, gosh, it's almost a Christmas tradition in itself.

Once again, Twisted Christmas sees Killing Floor's monsters transformed into dreadful snowmen, gingerbread folk, reindeer, elves, ice golems, and other festive freaks. As is tradition, today's update also brings new maps, in the shape of the fan-made Hell and Forgotten. Christmas achievements are back too, so players have another chance to unlock the Baddest Santa character.

This being the giving season, Tripwire's also bringing new things to The Ball, with a new mini-campaign estimated to take two hours. The Ball's protagonist is coming as a playable Killing Floor character for everyone who owns both games, too.

If you're looking to give gifts yourself, Killing Floor and all its DLC and The Ball are 50% off on on Steam until January 2.

      Christmas tradition here is to install it and play a few games each Christmas. My kids now equate it with Christmas.

        Your children are smart, and you have prepared them well for the Bath Salts Zombie Singularity.

          And also, I'm sure we will get some games up. Maddog and I were quite upset at everyone's participation, or lack thereof, this Halloween. Why, he was forced to play L4D2!

      I can't recommend this game enough for all my friends. It could use a facelift, but that's besides the point. This title often goes on sale for $5 and while no lurker I have logged about 400 hours. Classes, leveling, mini-bosses/bosses, extremely active community, updated regularly and a whole lot of killing! Online coop only*. Best $5 I've ever spent.
