Will Sony ever give these games new life?
Now, with most games these days, live service included, comes the inclusion of microtransactions. In Helldiver 2's case, these come in the form of Warbonds and the superstore. Some of them were a hit, others were a miss. But one of the superstore items that have sparked interest is the Killzone set. While this is nice, this would have much better served as a warbond. Putting it in the superstore comes off as greedy, but that's an issue for another video. More to the point, the Killzone franchise fanbase had taken note, and it sparked renewed interest in wanting the series to be revived.
lol well, as fans we'd naturally say that (yes myself included).
But given some of the complaints the series garnered over the years when it was available is why we asked it it was deserved
I think it does. A complete reboot would be ideal with a better story and main protagonist. I love the asthetic of the Killzone universe, along with the premise of Earth warring with another planet of humanoid beings, and Earth possibly being the antagonists. They just need to develop a good main protagonist and have better writing. A Killzone reboot in the latest version of the Decima engine would be incredible.
If it makes dollars it makes sense, that’s how these decisions are made.
Clearly Sony or whoever makes this decision isn’t convinced Killzone would sell enough to support the cost of development. They also have a hit with Horizon that isn’t going anywhere anytime soon and prints money.
considering the time we live in, it would more than likely get a VR option to replace the move support
Not unless they come up with some amazing marketing campaign otherwise it will just perform as bad as Halo these days.
Killzone and Horizon Zero Dawn composer Joris de Man would like PlayStation to make a remaster trilogy, but not a new game.
Id like a remaster trilogy and the ps vita version remastered as well. It should also have killzone 2 multiplayer
Yes make them start with KZ2 multiplayer remake as standalone!! I would play the carp out of it.
Knowing Sony and how the Uncharted remasters shipped without their MP components they'll likely do the same with Killzone.
Then there's no point in remastering it imo. KZ2's MP was the best thing about Killzone.
I'd day one a remaster trilogy I'd even day one a remaster trilogy or Resistance as well.
I'm glad they stopped making Killzone before people started saying "mid," so I am spared seeing all the braindead "Killzone is actually mid" takes that people inevitably would have offered up in lieu of legitimate analysis.
They were mid, tbh. Just the best Sony put out in the 1st person/exclusive department.
I don't know about that. They weren't the greatest shooters out there, sure, but nothing even came close to the atmosphere of 2 and 3. The feeling of weight, the animations, the style, the multiplayer and the trophies made it one hell of a game. All shooters are in essence point and shoot, but few make you feel the way Killzone made you feel while doing it.
They will cast a woman on one of the lead roles, just like how they did it in the past, but toda's nerds will find an excuse to be angry about it.
It should be a crime that they didn't put out a version of part 2 that supports their VR headset. A no-brainer...
The Ape Escape themed level in Sony and Team Asobi's Astro Bot was developed by the original creators of the series.
Haven't played Astro Bot yet, but it is on my to buy list! Ape Escape was such a fun game.
Team Asobi could definitely pull it off
It would be nice to switch between Astro Bot and another IP like Ape Escape.
Was playing some more Ape Escape last night. I like it but wow, the controls! That stage where it's a 1 on 1 race with the other guy. Is that even possible to win?? Fighting the camera the entire time, and how do you use that water jet thing without sinking below the surface of the water? As soon as you go below the surface you're screwed because you have to wait to float back up to the surface before you can jump out.
Hold R1 without moving in the water, you'll boost straight up to get back to the surface.
Dear Sony, please make another Astro Bot game for PSVR2, the PSVR1 Astro Bot Rescue Mission was wonderful. Thank you.
They could even patch Astrobmt PS5 to add VR mode.
Surely that would be a win-win?
I will gladly take that as well. Give us both Remaster on VR2, and a brand new game!
Team Asobi are my favourite developers. The new FREE speedrun levels are amazing. Can’t wait for the next three! If the newest one is any indication then we are in for some challenge people.
Prediction. One of the next speedrun levels will be a space level and one of them will be a water based level with the penguin ability.
I'd love to see another Legend of Dragoon or Drakan game.
Dark Cloud
I want the Getaway.
Wild Arms... Please, even if they're not 1st party.
