Opting to forego the usual upload channels, the Dutch developer went straight to source, by offering players an exclusive, ultra-high bitrate clip of the game's multiplayer suite in action.Īvailable to download via the official Killzone website, this 1080p, 60 frames per second shooting gallery employs minimal compression techniques, to give players a truer sense of the in-game Shadow Fall experience. In other Killzone news, Guerilla Games unveiled an additional trailer this week -this time doing so with something of a twist. Necks are snapped to the sound of life-preserving promises, civilians die and body counts mount up.Ĭheck out the video up top, to decide whether you've been fighting the good fight, or brighten up your (perfect) day with the latest, Helghast-occupied PS4 trailer. Flipping between scenes of battlefield action and 'Shadow Marshall' oath-taking, the minute-long, live-action video manages to be both patriotic and subversive, as the trailer's central character continually fails to fulfill his vows. The latest trailer for Killzone: Shadow Fall, aptly captures this sense of duality, reminding us of the often-contradictory efforts of the player-led ISA.

Though hardly a fresh take on the Killzone mythos, the 'Helghast as goodies' hypothesis does appear to carry plenty of merit, especially since developer Guerrilla Games seems to (indirectly) endorse it.

Playing as the intrepid ISA forces, gamers have been going up against the tyrannical rule of Helghan space-Nazis for years now, without ever stopping to consider that they themselves might be the bad guys.

Like the menacing mask of a Helghast soldier, Killzone's vast mythology hides more than meets the eye.
