Overview
If you thought the battle lines were
clear, you’ve not seen the whole story. Developed by Guerilla Games
Cambridge, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sony Computer Entertainment
Europe, Killzone: Mercenary for PlayStation®Vita—a new
first-person shooter in the acclaimed Killzone series—throws
players into a deadly firefight as part of a ruthless Mercenary
faction, one taking on paid contracts from not only the dangerous ISA
but the vicious Helghast as well. As the first handheld entry in the
series to retain the console titles’ first-person shooter gameplay,
Mercenary promises to combine an epic single-player campaign with a
substantial multiplayer offering. In Killzone: Mercenary, there is no
good. There is no evil. There is only the mission... And the money.
Spanning key events of the Killzone
trilogy, Killzone: Mercenary explores themes of greed, revenge and
conscience against the epic canvas of full-scale military invasion.
It’s the story of a young boy torn between two factions desperate
for victory at any cost.
Story
Arran Danner, veteran UCA soldier now a
mercenary-for-hire, helps deliver a crucial blow to the Helghast in
the liberation of Vekta and is hired once again to spearhead the ISA
counter-attack against Helghan.
But a seemingly routine mission to
evacuate the Vektan Ambassador and his family from Pyrrhus leaves
Danner in the middle of a deadly power struggle for the life of the
Ambassador’s young son.
As the invasion unfolds, it becomes
clear that the boy’s fate could change the course of the war and
both sides will do whatever it takes to get hold of him, forcing
Danner to question whether the price of victory can sometimes be too
high, no matter how big the pay check.
