It’s been around seven years since the release of the last game in the Killzone series, Killzone Shadow Fall in November 2013. Now, fans of the series are getting excited. Rumors suggest that a new Killzone PS5 exclusive might be under development. Where do these rumors come from? Let’s take a closer look.
Is There a New Killzone PS5 Exclusive in Development?
The main reason gamers think that a new Killzone PS5 game might be on the way is the video that Sony released recently to show off what the PS5 user interface will look like. At one point in the video, there is a “Welcome Back to PlayStation” screen that asks, “Who’s using this controller?” The user prominently displayed has a Killzone avatar.
So, the question is, “Why did Sony so prominently feature a Killzone avatar in this video?” Could it be meaningless? Sure. That is always possible. But they had to know that people would start asking questions about whether a new Killzone PS5 exclusive could be on the way.
And then there is the matter of Guerilla Games. While we know that the studio has Horizon Forbidden West under development, we also know there is a team at the studio supposedly working on an unknown shooter. That is what prompted SOCOM reboot rumors previously. But maybe what Guerilla Games is working on actually is a Killzone title.
We will keep our eyes open for any other rumors that could lend credence to the theory about a forthcoming Killzone game.
