For the AI counterpart, see Crawler (Killing Floor 2).


The player-controlled Crawler is one of the playable ZEDs in Killing Floor 2's Versus Mode. The Crawler's role is area of denial, as well as distraction. The Crawler is fragile but is extremely fast and is capable of leaping long distances to launch their attacks, as well as to position themselves to self-destruct. The playable Crawler can do a surprisingly high amount of melee damage if ignored, but usually will not last very long once the Survivors start firing at it.

Player-controlled Crawlers (along the Alpha Clots and Slashers) start spawning at the first wave of the normal versus game.

Crawlers along the Stalkers and enraged Fleshpound appear to be the fastest enemies at the game, capable of sprinting at speed of 7 meters per second. On top of that their leap jumps give them even more mobility.
