Killing Floor 2 Mrs. Foster Character: Is She Worth It?
Mrs. Foster is a purely cosmetic playable character in Killing Floor 2. This page summarizes a player's review of what she is, what the purchase gives you and whether the price is justified.
Lore: who she is
Mrs. Foster debuted in the first Killing Floor, where she could only be played if you bought the DLC. KF2 follows the same idea, except she is now sold in the in-game store and lands in your inventory as an item rather than as a separate piece of extra content. From the name it is easy to guess she is a wife or close relative of Foster, one of the notable figures of the series, which makes people a little more curious about her.

What the purchase includes
The purchase gives you only the base hero with a small choice of colors for the gas mask and clothes. As with many other heroes there are six variants: white, green, red, brown, pink and black.

Another variant of the outfit.

How she differs from other characters
A hero normally has only a unique voice and, occasionally, clothing that can be worn only on that hero. Mrs. Foster does not stand out much here. She has full Russian voice acting with sharp remarks aimed at the mutants and more. In the first minutes it is fun to listen to her react to the surroundings, such as complaining that it is dark or cold. The base heroes have such reactions too, though, so she does not really separate herself from them.
Verdict
The author finds about 10 USD (645 rubles at the time of writing) too much for a single hero, even one like Mrs. Foster. In-game sales sometimes appear and she can be picked up for half price, and then it does not look so expensive. Collectors who want everything in the KF2 store that cannot be obtained any other way will probably buy her regardless of the price.
