Killzone 2
Throughout the campaign, Killzone 2 players will encounter lifelike and adaptable
artificial intelligence (A.I.) from Killzone 2's enemies as well as fellow soldiers,
destructible environments, and stunningly detailed scenery. Additionally, in Killzone 2,
players will be tasked with utilising a host of new weapons and vehicles in the war to
stop the Helghast. Featuring an extensive single-player campaign and thrilling
multi-player mode, Killzone 2 delivers a host of new gameplay elements and an intense
storyline that will once again drive gamers to join the ranks of the ISA and fight the
Helghast... this time on the enemy’s home planet!
Two years after the Helghast assault on Vekta, the ISA is taking the fight to the
enemy’s home world of Helghan. In Killzone 2 the ISA goal is direct: capture the Helghast
leader, Emperor Visari, and bring the Helghast war machine to a halt. Assuming the role
of Sev, a battle-hardened veteran and a member of the special forces unit known as the
Legion, Killzone 2 players will lead a group of highly trained soldiers on a mission to
take out the Helghast threat. For Sev and his squad, the invasion of Helghan is just the
beginning. Tasked with securing Pyrrhus, the Capital City, the team in Killzone 2 quickly
discovers that the Helghast are a formidable enemy on their home planet. Not only have
they adjusted to the planet’s hostile conditions, they have also harnessed a source of
power they can now use against the ISA. In Killzone 2 Sev discovers his squad isn’t just
fighting enemy forces – their fiercest opponent may be the planet itself.
