Killzone 3 is an upcoming 2011 first-person shooter for the PlayStation 3, developed by Guerrilla Games and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. It is the fourth installment in the Killzone series, the first game in the series to be presented in 3D and the first to include motion controls using the PlayStation Move. It is due for release on February 22, 2011 in North America.[2][1]

Plot

The game picks up immediately after the ending of Killzone 2 and follows the previous games' main protagonist, Sev, a Special Forces operative fighting for the Interplanetary Strategic Alliance against the Helghast Empire. The game continues shortly after Sev successfully defeated Radec and Rico having killed Visari, the Helghast dictator who leaves them to a fleet of Helghast ships approaching them destroying ISA vessels.

The death of their dictator has left the Helghast Empire in a state of internal struggle. Now, Sev and his comrade Rico are trapped in the cross-fire between the various political factions without any reinforcements and are left to fight alone in order to escape as the ISA struggles to regroup its forces and stop a Helghast invasion of Earth.[3] The game will also give players a deeper look into Helghan culture such as their language and showcase whatever humanity they have left within them.

Killzone 3's story will also be more light-hearted compared to its predecessor, which Guerrilla felt suffered from an overly serious and dark story which was one of the major complaints of the original, though they mentioned that it would not be too light-hearted as it is still a war. In addition, Guerrilla Games has hired an external writer to focus on only writing the storyline so as to give a fresh perspective to the story as well as hiring a lot more Hollywood actors to elevate the level of storytelling within the dialogue of the game.[4]

Guerrilla Games has also mentioned that the game's story will be an integral part of the game with dialogue and character development being greatly improved from its predecessor.[5] In addition, Guerrilla Games has also said that they are curtailing the swearing in Killzone 3, which many felt was unnecessary in the dialogue of Killzone 2. They mentioned that the dialogue in the game should be focused on advancing the story rather than "gratuitous" swearing.[6]

The Killzone 3 "Justice Trailer" reveals new characters: the resourceful female ISA member Jammer, as well as the hopeful heirs to Visari's throne, Jorhan Stahl (voiced by Malcolm MacDowell) and Admiral Orlock (voiced by Ray Winstone).[7]

Gameplay

The gameplay will strongly resemble that of Killzone 2 albeit with several tweaks and changes. Similar to the first Killzone, the game will take place in various harsh environments such as Arctic landscapes, a lethal alien jungle, nuclear wastelands as well as space battles rather than only the city-scape environments which were present in Killzone 2. Another notable new feature is the ability to use jet packs in the game, which were also used in Killzone: Liberation, however, these new jet packs will be used in a different manner than that of those in Killzone: Liberation.

The game will also feature a revamped close combat melee system which include new brutal melee attacks as well as the ability to string together multiple attacks in a combo. A new weapon called the WASP has also been revealed, which acts as a multi-firing rocket launcher.[8] In the July 2010 edition of Game Informer, it was revealed that the WASP rocket launcher will have a primary fire and a secondary fire, which leaves to speculation that secondary fire for various weapons will return as seen in the original Killzone. The multiplayer beta has disproved this, though it's possible for secondary fire to be present in the single player or co-op campaign.

Multiplayer

Killzone 3 supports offline split-screen co-op for two players, a feature not present in Killzone 2. With this mode, two players can play the campaign of Killzone 3 offline. This is the only offline split-screen mode available in Killzone 3, and the co-op mode is not available online.

Online mutliplayer of Killzone 3 supports three different game modes: Guerilla Warfare, Warzone, and Operations. "Guerilla Warfare" is a classic team death match style game that supports up to 16 players per map. "Warzone", returning from Killzone 2's multiplayer, is a mission based game, such as Capture and Hold or Assassination, that supports up to 24 players per map. "Operations" is a new game mode that features cinematic scenes and supports up to 16 players per map. In Operations, one team will try to infiltrate the other teams base. For example, on the Frozen Dam map, the Helghast must defend the dam from the ISA forces. The ISA must first make it past the first barrier by planting explosives, they must then capture and hold areas in the next portion of the map, and then they must plant two more explosives. Cinematic scenes are featured at the beginning of the match, between destination points, and at the end of the match. If the Helghast are successful at defending the dam, they take the ISA forces as prisoners.

There are a total of eight multiplayer maps on disk, including Corinth Highway, Pyrrhus Crater, Bilgarsk Boulevard, Turbine Concourse SE-6, Frozen Dam, Akmir, Snowdrift, Mawlr Graveyard, and Kaznan Jungle. The Kaznan Jungle map only supports the Guerilla Warfare game mode, while the other seven support Warzone. Pyrrhus Crater, Bilgarsk Boulevard, Frozen Dam, and Akmir Snowdrift also support Guerilla Warfare. Operations is only available on the Frozen Dam, Akmir Snowdrift, and Mawlr Graveyard maps. The jetpacks are exclusive to the Turbine Concourse SE-6 map while the Exos and WASPS rocker launcher are only available on the Corinth Highway map. Mortar Beacons are found on Corinth Highway, Pyrrhus Crater, Bilgarsk Boulevard, Frozen Dam, and Mawlr Graveyard maps. Miniguns can be found in the Pyrrhus Crater, Bilgarsk Boulevard, and Turbine Concourse SE-6 maps. A snowstorm is featured on the Akmir Snowdrift map and a crusher is featured in the Mawlr Graveyard.[9]

There are a total of five classes for players to choose from: Marksman, Engineer, Field Medic, Tactician, and Infiltrator. Each have their own special abilities and weapons, such as disguise for the Infiltrator or cloaking for the Marksman. Unlike Killzone 2, players may choose any class from the start, however, they must earn Unlock Points to upgrade the abilites and to gain more weapons for each class (Unlock Points are awarded by ranking up). Each class's abilities can be upgraded twice, and they can unlock two additional primary weapons, one additional secondary weapon, and one heavy weapon (e.g. rocket launcher). Other abilites, such as armor or silent footsteps, are earned based on obtaining a certain rank in multiplayer and can be used on any class.

Downloadable content

The first downloadable content announced for Killzone 3 is the "Retro Map Pack" which consists of two of the most popular maps from Killzone 2. The maps are the "Salamun Market" and "Blood Gracht" maps, which have been updated for Killzone 3. Saluman Market features the Warzone game mode while Blood Gracht features the Guerilla Warfare game mode. This pack will be available to purchase from the PlayStation Network. The map pack is also available as a pre-order bonus from various retailers and can be obtained from 7-Eleven's promotion of Killzone 3 for 10 Slurpee rewards points. It is also included in the Helghast Edition.[10]

Development

The game was officially unveiled to the public by Sony Computer Entertainment on May 24, 2010 through the PlayStation.Blog.[5] The game was first leaked to the public on May 21, 2010 through an early release copy of the June issue of gaming magazine GamePro alongside a leaked screenshot.[11] Rumors about a sequel to the Killzone series have been around since just shortly after the release of Killzone 2.[12][13] It was not until March 20, 2010 that Sony officially confirmed that they were working on Killzone 3. President of Sony Computer Entertainment America, Jack Tretton, confirmed its development in an interview with GameTrailers, but at that point of time could not yet say when the game would be officially announced.[14]

Guerrilla's managing director, Herman Hulst, has stated Killzone 3 will use close to 100% of the PS3's power.[15] The rumors of the intervention of Naughty Dog in the development were denied by Guerrilla: "Guerrilla is working on Killzone 3's graphics engine all on its own, confirming Naughty Dog has no hand in its development"[16] The first teaser trailer for the game was released on June 3, 2010 and features the new brutal melee combat system. The cinematic trailer shows Sev battling a Helghast ending with him taking the Helghast's helmet and putting it on himself.[17]

On June 11, 2010 on Killzone.com and the US PlayStation Blog, Guerrilla Games released a pre-E3 gameplay video. Guerrilla said the gameplay video is made of gameplay footage pulled straight from the game's fourth mission called "Frozen Shores." It featured the new brutal melee system, the jet packs, the new weapon (the WASP missile launcher), and it featured Sev, as well as Rico, with Sev's hair a bit longer than in Killzone 2.[18] At E3 2010, it was confirmed that Killzone 3 will support the PlayStation Move and will be released in February 2011. A pre-alpha code gameplay video was also shown at E3 in 3D; a special screen was lowered and the audience had 3D glasses available to them. The E3 gameplay video featured the jet packs as well as the player riding on a craft using a turret.

Guerrilla Games game director, Mathijs de Jonge, has been chatting about the merits of swearing in games, and with Killzone 3 he feels the studio have got just the right amount. "In Killzone 2 we ended up with too much of it, Killzone 3 swearing 'a lot more impactful'." he told Edge.[19] Tommy de Roos, principal programmer at Guerrilla Games, who headed development for Move with Killzone 3, has said that he thinks "Most FPS games will be played with motion control in a few years."[20]

Beta

The Killzone 3 multiplayer closed beta began on October 12, 2010 for select participants of the Killzone community.

The Killzone 3 multiplayer open beta began on October 25, 2010 (with a download patch for version 2.02; updated again to 2.04). A limited 5,000 PlayStation Plus subscribers from SCEA[21] and 10,000 PlayStation Plus subscribers from SCEE[22] could gain access to the beta by downloading the Killzone 3 XMB theme (released on October 13 and 19, 2010 for SCEE and SCEA respectively). Selected participants were notified by email with a redeem code to access the beta. This beta was to test gameplay only and did not support PlayStation Move or 3D capabilities.

The official twitter page for Killzone selected 300 twitter subscribers (150 from SCEE and SCEA territories respectively) to participate in the open beta between October 19 and October 22, 2010.[23]

On November 7, 2010, the beta was expanded inviting 5,000 more PlayStation Plus subscribers from SCEE and SCEA territories. Instead of email distribution, these redeem codes were sent out via PlayStation Network messages.[24]

This beta ended prior to the end of 2010.

On January 21, 2011, it was announced that the Killzone 3 Multiplayer Open Beta will be available for download on the PlayStation Network on February 2 in North America and February 3 in Europe through February 14, 2011.[25] On February 1, however, it was announced that the North American open beta was delayed until February 3 and "to make it up", Sony ran a sweepstakes to giveaway 60 Killzone 3 Limited Helghast Editions (not sold in stores) to US players who participated in the open beta from February 4 through February 6.[26] The Beta offers early access to the MP05 'Frozen Dam' multiplayer level, including all three online multiplayer modes - Guerrilla Warfare, Warzone and Operations - as well as the offline multiplayer mode, Botzone.[27][28]

On February 7, 2011, update patch 1.01 was released for the multiplayer open beta. On February 9, 2011, it was reported that over 8 million kills have been made, 10% of that being Brutal Melee kills. with 350,000 games already played.[29]

Due to the high response of the first Killzone 3 Limited Helghast Edition sweepstakes giveaway, Sony will run another sweepstakes, giving away 60 more Limited Helghast Editions from February 11 through February 13, 2011 in the US (five Canadian participants will also be chosen during this time in addition to the 60 for the US).[29]

Demo

The Killzone 3 single player demo will be available in North America on February 8 and in Europe on February 9 for PlayStation Plus members and on February 15 and February 16 for everyone else. It'll be available as two separate downloads from the PlayStation Store: one in 2D and one in 3D. The 2D version features splitscreen co-op, which isn't supported in the 3D demo. Both versions of the demo are PlayStation Move-enabled and both versions of the demo will take place on the "Icy Incursion" level.[30][31]

3D support

Killzone 3 will include a mode that will support Sony's plunge into 3D gaming. The Killzone 3 3D mode will be optional, and will require a 3D ready TV with 3D glasses.[32] The first impressions of the 3D show some glitches; with three-dimensional visual effects, the game becomes blurry, imprecise, and disorienting. In alpha version, 3D sacrifices things like sharpness, speed, a feeling of orientation[33] and a lot more aliasing. Jagged edges as well as some ghosting of interface elements[34] are reported to occur.

At E3 2010, it was revealed that Killzone 3 was built with 3D support from the ground up. In praise of the game's 3D capabilities GameTrailers awarded the title Best 3D Graphics of E3 2010,[35] although officially, it did not have any nominations at E3 2010.[36] The E3 2010 trailer resolution is half the horizontal resolution of the 2D game, with the whole image (including HUD) scaled up using the PS3 hardware scaler and render the vision of a single eye.[37]

Release and marketing

On January 14, 2011, it was announced on both the North American and European PlayStation Blog's that the game has "gone gold", meaning the game is 100% finished and has been signed-off by SCE QA.[38][39]

7-Eleven is offering exclusive downloadable content for Killzone 3 in exchange for Slurpee purchases in stores in the U.S. which begun in February 2011. 7-Eleven is also featuring Killzone 3 themed Slurpee cups. Each Slurpee cup bears a unique code, allowing a download for Killzone 3 content (and other Slurpee rewards), such as the Helghast "Capture Trooper" and Jason Narville I.S.A. costumes for PlayStation Home, the Retro Map Pack, the "Unlock and Load Pack", a PC wallpaper, and an exclusive behind-the-scenes video.[40] The promotion runs until the end of March 2011.[41]

Announced on January 19, 2011, all early copies of Killzone 3 (including both the standalone and Helghast Editions) will include a redeemable voucher for the SOCOM 4 multiplayer beta.[42]

Walmart will be hosting a midnight launch event. The first 20 players to purchase Killzone 3 will receive a limited edition Killzone 3 poster and a voucher for the Retro Map Pack. Select Walmart stores will also be hosting tournaments where players can win a copy of Killzone 3, a limited edition Cloaking Helghast Marksman action figure, and collectible Killzone 3 bags.[43]

Alongside the standard edition of the game, there will be several other versions of the game exclusive to certain countries and/or regions around the world. All of the special edition versions of the game are sold in limited quantities and contain a copy of the game as standard or special packaging.

PlayStation Home

On January 27, 2011 (until February 17, 2011), in the PlayStation 3's social gaming network PlayStation Home, the "Central Plaza" (North American Home's central meeting point) has been redesigned as "the last remaining ISA stronghold" in celebration of Killzone 3[50] (European users can also access the Central Plaza; a special ISA Dropship is available in the Home Square, Europe's central meeting point, that teleports users to the Central Plaza[51]). There is a mini-game in the Central Plaza called "Killzone Plaza Defender" which is a Killzone-themed first-person shooter mini-game where players shoot down enemy Helghast airships, ground vehicles, and infantry units or assist gunners by collecting and delivering ammunition, repair kits, and first aid. The mini-game has three waves for users to complete, each with three challenges (such as simply completing each wave, assisting other players in each wave, completing Wave 1 with full health, completing Wave 2 with a certain accuracy, and completing Wave 3 with a perfect score) with an unlockable I.S.A. uniform (Rico's, minus the helmet) for the users Home avatar. Completing all of the challenges for all three waves will grant three Unlock Points, which can be redeemed for new weapons and abilities in Killzone 3 multiplayer. Users can also pre-order Killzone 3 from Amazon.com at a special kiosk in the Central Plaza (or from the "Killzone Plaza Defender" menu screen). Pre-ordering by this means will grant users an exclusive "Helghast Jetpack" for their Home avatar in addition to the other pre-order bonus from Amazon.com (pre-order unavailable for European users). In addition, users can obtain a Helghast "Capture Trooper" and Jason Narville I.S.A. costume for their Home avatar from the 7-Eleven promotion for 2 Slurpee points each.

Reception

Killzone 3 has received generally favorable reviews. Review aggregator Metacritic averages the game's score to 86 out of 100 based on 23 reviews. The first English review of the game was published by PlayStation Official Magazine (UK), which gave the game a 9/10. The review stated "on a visual level, as a 3D breakthrough, this feels like a watershed moment in a revolution affecting all of gaming". The review also stated on gameplay terms, "Black Ops is the only [first-person shooter] on PlayStation 3 that can match this". The voice acting, however, was criticised as not being perfect, thus lacking "emotive punch" and the reason for not receiving a perfect 10/10.[59]

IGN gave the game an 8.5, praising the atmosphere, graphics and multiplayer. However, the reviewer criticized the story, stating "the weak story never develops into anything great."[57] Destructoid gave the game a perfect 10/10, with reviewer Jim Sterling stating: "I don't think the PlayStation 3 has ever had quite such a rounded, satisfactory package as this, with this level of polish, refinement and pure, simple, unpretentious action."[citation needed] PlayStation Lifestyle awarded it a 10/10 as well, calling the game "the ultimate ending to a new form of sci-fi epic.".

Sequel

Despite the fact that the game has yet one month to been released, Guerrilla Games already has a 'lot of ideas' for next instalment. In an interview with PlayStation Official Magazine (UK), Mathijs de Jonge stated that "We're looking at new projects, there's a lot of ideas already floating around the company to put in a new Killzone."[61]
