Guerrilla Games has seemingly dashed hopes of a new Killzone game in an interview discussing its Horizon franchise. Studio veteran Roy Postma revealed to The Washington Post that Horizon was born out of the team’s desire to move on from Killzone, and create an IP that’s the opposite of a dark shooter. A new Killzone game might just be a pipe dream According to Postma, Guerrilla Games felt the need to “refresh the palette” and was “done” with the Killzone franchise at the time Horizon was conceived. “It was, by choice, the opposite of Killzone,” he said (thanks, ResetEra). Postma went on to explain that Guerrilla believes Horizon resonates with more players and targets a wider audience than Killzone. “I think the themes that this story and the characters represent are relatable for all ages and people, like having a found family of friends and finding your place in the world,” Postma added. From a commercial aspect, Horizon is certainly more popular than Killzone, as evidenced by its sales. With a Lego game, a remaster, and a multiplayer title incoming, Guerrilla seems to have no plans to put the franchise to rest. The Killzone franchise spanned nine years, from 2004 to 2013. Next February, Horizon will celebrate its eighth anniversary. The post New Killzone Game Hopes Seemingly Dashed by Guerrilla appeared first on PlayStation LifeStyle.
