Alien Breed 3D II: The Killing Grounds (sometimes AB:TKG or TKG) is the fifth game in Team17's Alien Breed franchise, a series of science-fiction-themed shooters largely inspired by the Alien films. It was published in 1996 by Ocean Software.
Team17 had originally intended this to be its final Amiga title. Following the success of Worms, Team17's first multi-format release, the company was looking to get out of the Amiga game market, which had become stagnant over the years. As it transpired, TKG was not Team17's final Amiga title—Worms: The Director's Cut was released the following year. Alien Breed 3D II sold 5,000 copies.
Team17 made the game's source code freely available in March 1997, on the cover CD of Amiga Format magazine issue 95.
