MULTIPLAYER
For those who participated in the Killzone 3 multiplayer open beta, you’ve already had the opportunity to play with several of the Gameplay changes as they were present in the package you downloaded.

*Medic: The LS-57 SMG replaces their previously equipped StA-11 SMG
*Medic: The M224-1A LMG replaces their previously equipped LS-13 Shotgun
