In the opening level we play as young Lucas who is trying to escape the city with his father during the first days of the Helghast occupation. had said, “We’re sorry…here, take New York City.” That seems to be the unlikely premise that this story is based on. It seems that 30 years ago the ISA bombed their planet leaving it uninhabitable, then in an odd twist of guilt and remorse they offered to let the surviving Helghast move to their planet and occupy one of their largest cities. Which girl…err…game are you going to take home? Well for those who prefer looks over brains, the good news is that Killzone is only going home with you if you are driving a shiny new PS4.Ī hypnotic opening cutscene sets the somber stage for the current war between the ISA and Helghan. You have Battlefield, the attractive prospect with long-term relationship potential, Call of Duty, just as good looking but probably only going to hold your interest for a few months, and then there is Killzone: Shadow Fall the stunning supermodel that is great to show off to your friends, but shallow enough to only be worth a one-night stand (or maybe a weekend tryst) at best. So, if you walked into a club and saw all three available FPS games standing at the bar, you’d have three distinct choices. That is certainly the case with Shadow Fall as this is the most spectacularly gorgeous FPS I have play on any system of any generation to date – and this is a launch title just wait until developers have a few years with this new tech. Spanning both previous PlayStation systems and most recently appearing in one of the PS Vita’s best portable games of 2013, Killzone is a competent shooter in its own right, and being a first-party Sony title, it has always had the luxury of being able to exploit the power of whatever system it shipped for. Not that the Killzone franchise is without its own loyal fan base. Big names like Call of Duty and Battlefield are also staking their claims to your launch library purchases, and with a much larger and more enthusiastic following that not only spans both systems but also both generations of hardware, Guerrilla Games seems to be caught in the crossfire. There will also be the OWL attack drone, which has combat abilities that not only allow you to make more tactical decisions when it comes to attacking and flanking, but also helps you traverse through the environments by using ziplines.Killzone: Shadow Fall has the luxury of being the only exclusive FPS launch title for either of the new consoles releasing this holiday season, but it is not without its competition.

The company has stated that it will continue to add new customisation options for players as well as expansion packs for free.īack in July, the developers talked about some of the new features of the game, such as a combo system for melee attacks and the OWL drone that will be at players' disposal. Guerilla won't get Killzone: Shadow Fall go too stale, either. The game has more than 1,500 challenges for players to complete. According to Guerilla, instead of racking up XP by killing enemies, players will progress through the ranks by completing challenges. The progression system in Killzone: Shadow Fall was also elaborated upon. This includes options like setting the number of players, which can go up to 24, rules of the game, mission modes, classes, abilities and weapons.
