Killzone in the works for PS3
November 27th 2006 23:51
Back at E3 of 2005, Sony showed off CVG footage of Killzone running on PS3 hardware. The video was nothing short of amazing, but was somewhat controversial as it was from a first person perspective, and many believed Sony were trying to give the impression that the video was actually gameplay footage, which it clearly wasn't.
Since then, there has been no information anywhere about a next generation Killzone iteration. Finally, a year and a half later, and following the recent dissapointing launch of the console in Japan and North America, a story has shown up in a dutch newspaper, de Volksrant, proving that the game is indeed well into development.
Costing over $20 million US, and comprising a development team of over 120 members, Killzone is certainly going to be one high profile release. Although there is no indication in the article of when the title will reach stores, late next year would be a good bet. Also of note is that Killzone on PS3 will apparently support downloadable over the Playstation Store, which is a good sign of things to come for PS3 owners with a broadband connection.
Sony will have high hopes for this one, as the original Killzone was relatively successful on the PS2, and it is in dire need of some killer titles exclusive to its brand spanking new machine.
