Guerrilla moving on from Killzone, working on new IP

Dutch studio Guerrilla Games is looking forward to a future beyond the Killzone IP.

Following its debut 2004 title Shellshock Nam ’67, the Sony owned studio has worked on a succession of Killzone titles – six in total, the next of which, Killzone: Shadow Fall, releases alongside PS4 next month.

But with Shadow Fall production done and dusted the developer has confirmed to Eurogamer that new things are on the horizon.

That’s definitely what’s happening right now. I can’t tell you what we’re thinking of but yes," lead designer Eric Boltjes stated.

"As a studio we do want to branch out, and we have started work on a new IP, something completely different to Killzone. I don’t want to say anything about it right now, but as a studio we do want to keep it fresh.”

The Killzone brand debuted in 2004 with the high-tech Halo Killer” PS2 title of the same name.

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons.
