Killzone: Mercenary is a first-person shooter in the Killzone
series, powered by the stunning Killzone engine. Developed
specifically for the PlayStation Vita platform, Mercenary
enhances the familiar twin-stick FPS control scheme with touch
pad functionality for interesting new gameplay possibilities.
The Story
---------
Starting just after the ending of the original Killzone, and
revisiting many of the events from the Killzone trilogy, the game
puts players in the rugged combat boots of a mercenary named
Arran Danner. Danner is a former UCA-soldier who has no qualms
about taking on paid contracts from the ISA as well as the
Helghast.
When a seemingly routine mission to evacuate the Vektan
Ambassador and his family in Pyrrhus goes awry, Danner discovers
that the outcome of the war could very well depend on the e of
the Ambassador’s young son. With both sides going to increasingly
desperate lengths to get hold of the boy, he begins to wonder
whether the price of victory is really worth the paycheck.
With Killzone: Mercenary, PlayStation Vita owners get a fresh
perspective on the brutal conflict between ISA and Helghast –
literally. For the first time in a Killzone campaign, you’ll be
fighting alongside Helghast forces as well as ISA spets,
carrying out missions that the regular soldiers just won’t — or
can’t.
The Gameplay
------------
Comprised of nine single-player missions — each nearly an hour in
length — Killzone: Mercenary delivers the full experience in a
portable package. Completed missions unlock additional replay
challenges, with a host of special objectives to accomplish. The
game also boasts a full-fledged multiplayer mode with six s
tailored for eight players and three different game types,
including the popular Warzone mode.
In keeping with the soldier-for-hire theme, every action in the
game is rewarded. The better you perform, the higher your payout
– not just in the single-player campaign, but also in the
multiplayer mode. The wages you collect are deposited into a
single bank account, so the money you earn in the campaign
missions can also be used to buy gear and weapons for multiplayer
matches, and vice versa.
As a mercenary, you’re free to decide which tactics and loadouts
you’ll use to fulfill your contract; your employers will reward
you with state-of-the-art weaponry and cold, hard cash as long as
you get the job done. But what is the price of that freedom – and
will you discover it before it’s too late?
Tailored to the PS Vita
-----------------------
Killzone: Mercenary makes full use of PlayStation Vita’s
considerable input and graphics capabilities. It enhances the
familiar dual-stick FPS control scheme with touch controls for
actions such as brutal melee, and with tilt controls for accurate
sniper ing. The game even uses the powerful Killzone 3 engine
to bring its massive environments and impressive set pieces to
life.
