Sony and Guerrilla Reportedly Revive Killzone With Early Remaster Project

Confirmation would point to PlayStation using an outside partner to visually update a dormant franchise with timing tied to Guerrilla’s work on Horizon Hunter’s Gathering.

Overview

  • Two outlets reporting on unnamed sources say a new Killzone project is in very early production but no official announcement has been made and core details remain unverified.
  • The report states Guerrilla is collaborating with a non‑first‑party studio on the project, and People Can Fly is the leading candidate because of a March 2025 co‑development deal known as Project Delta.
  • Sources most consistently describe the work as a visual uplift or remaster of an older Killzone entry rather than a full reboot, though a reboot possibility has been mentioned.
  • Guerrilla has shifted staff to fix Horizon Hunter’s Gathering after negative feedback on that title, a move that sources say could delay Killzone work and push back Horizon 3 plans.
  • Killzone has been inactive since Shadow Fall on PS4 in 2013 and its multiplayer servers closed in August 2022, and industry practice suggests external partnerships are a common way for PlayStation to refresh older IPs so official confirmation will determine scope and timing.
