Killzone 3 officially announced for PS3

Sony Computer Entertainment has officially announced Killzone 3 today. Our first glimpse of the title came out of the latest GamePro over the weekend, revealing hand-to-hand combat, jetpacks, and bigger everything.

A “war far from won”, Killzone 3 picks up where Killzone 2 left off, with Helghast dictator Visari dead at the hands of Sev and Rico and new political and social madness erupting as a result. A nuclear bomb set off in the Heglhan Capital Phyruss has decimated the ISA invasion force, leaving the player and company alone with no re-enforcements.

Killzone 3 promises levels “ten times bigger” than the previous game, promising new diversity whilst bringing players to toxic wastelands, alien jungles, arctic areas, and even space. Guerrilla says “every location features a distinct gameplay style for you to master.”

New features for the game includes “high definition, stereoscopic 3D”, jetpack troopers, “portable weapons of mass destruction”, and a lot more.

Killzone 3 has not been given a time frame. Check out the first screenshots at the gallery.
