KillZone 2

What’s up with Killzone 2 DLC?

By now, you Killzone 2 multiplayer fans should be leveled up close to General. You should know how deadly the shotgun can be when Capture & Hold-ing at Radec Academy, and where to set up your sentry bots in Salamun Market. So what’s next for Killzone 2 multiplayer? Put a pot of coffee on and find out tonight.

Hermen Hulst, Managing Director from Guerrilla Games will be joining Spike’s GameTrailers TV at 12:30 am this evening (late Thursday/early Friday) to reveal details about the first DLC for Killzone 2.

I’ll see you in the Warzone until 12:29…

Quase de certeza que são novos mapas, mas penso (e espero) que não vai ser só isso.
Daqui a umas horas já sabemos.

Hi folks,

as you are all now aware, we have some DLC inbound! Whoo! So I thought I’d pop in and tell you a wee bit about it.

The pack is called ’Steel & Titanium" and contains 2 new maps,

Wasteland Bullet and Vekta Cruiser. If you’ve not seen the footage, check it out here: http://www.gametrailers.com/gametrailerstv_player.php?ep=55&ch=2&sd=0

WB is based loosly on the mine-train at the beginning of Tharsis Refinery and VC on The Cruiser level of the single player campaign. They are however heavily remodelled to suit multiplayer.

All modes are present as are the MP bots and both can handle the full 32 players. We’ll be talking more about them as we get closer to release. I think these are the best maps we’ve done yet.

We are also working on a new patch to enable the DLC as well as synching up with the Japanese release of Killzone 2 on the 23rd of April. There is a long list of fixes and some new functionality and I will be letting you know more about it next week.

We’re still all go here and haven’t really slowed down since release. Expect a lot more from us still. We are by no means done. And I hear something about ’retro’? What do you think that will be? Let me know below.

Lastly, check out Part 3 of the Killzone Chronicals now on www.killzone.com . I am really enjoying this series and looking back at our early efforts and I hope you like it too and get an understanding of what goes into making a game. Check it out here.

Back next week. Have a nice weekend!
