PlayStation has announced the creators of Killzone, Guerilla Games, are celebrating the 10 year anniversary of Kill zone with new content, expansion packs, live streams (Nov. 7th is the last day), art expos, free stuff, multiplayer and cooperative maps.
When the original Killzone came out for PS2 on November 2nd, 2004, Guerilla Games had no way of knowing its red-goggled antagonists would go on to invade four additional console platforms, five more Killzone games, nine other PlayStation titles, a toy line, a novelization and a manga. Now, ten years later, the world of Killzone is bigger than ever.
Guerilla Games is very proud of how far they’ve come, and to mark this joyous occasion they’re going to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Killzone with the people who made it all possible, you, the loyal fans. Guerilla Games has several content releases planned for Killzone Shadow Fall in the pipeline, as well as live playthroughs, interviews, tournaments and more! Here’s what you can look forward to in the coming month.

Free Stuff
Expand your Killzone Shadow Fall multiplayer experience with these free maps and items:
New ‘The Academy’ Multiplayer Map
Arguably Killzone 2’s most popular multiplayer map, Radec Academy (named after Autarch Visari’s right-hand man and fan-favorite antagonist, Colonel Radec) is coming to Killzone Shadow Fall. We briefly revisited a collapsed version of this map in the From The Ashes DLC for Killzone 3, but this time around the ravages of war have really left a mark on the Academy.
Two New Cooperative Maps
In addition to the competitive multiplayer version, The Academy will also be released as a free cooperative map for Killzone Shadow Fall Intercept, along with a second cooperative map known as The Weapons Facility. We’ll have more detailed descriptions and trailers for the new maps on killzone.com soon!
Don’t miss out!
