A few created by Guerrilla are already available and include a mode that focuses on stealth and another where you’ve only one life and no radar. But the big new idea for Shadow Fall is Custom Warzones, where you can now customise your own modes for other players to play. In brief though the multiplayer is split into two broad sections, one being Classic Warzone from the original games – where the game mode cycles through a range of variants, from capture the flag to team deathmatch.

Although having seen the multiplayer at previews, and played it offline with bots (a very welcome feature for more reasons than just getting this review done), we think it unlikely there’ll be any major changes to the final verdict.
Killzone shadow fall review update#
We’ll update this review later, with our thoughts on the multiplayer and alter the score accordingly if it deserves it. In terms of the multiplayer the European servers for the game will not be turned on until at least Friday, but we felt it was important to have a review of some sort available this week. Too much time is spent moving around not very interesting environments, with even the zero gravity sections eventually coming across as tedious rather than awe-inspiring. They try their best but too much of story campaign is spent in ineffective tension-building that just doesn’t work – especially as even when the action does start most firefights have a curiously low bodycount. Whether that’s the time limitations of being a launch game or not we can’t say but the quality of individual chapters varies considerably.Īnd once again it’s obvious that not only do Dutch developer Guerrilla Games not have much aptitude for storytelling but they’re not much for bombastic set pieces either. Although there are a few more open-ended levels they don’t offer the same amount of freedom, and by the end of the game the action has devolved into that of stock corridor-based shooter – with even the OWL feeling strangely underutilised. The problem is that the game never throws up anything quite as interesting again. The first level like this is the wooded area that Sony used to demo the game at E3, and small wonder as both the visuals and gameplay work together to create something that feels, if not next gen, then at least something identifiably different (assuming you’ve never played Crysis anyway). The most useful item in your sci-fi utility belt is the OWL drone, which can be used to stun or attack enemies, create a shield or fire a zipeline to quickly access lower areas. The objectives are still linear but thanks to a range of new gadgets you’re given an impressive amount of freedom in how you tackle them. What’s brand new for Shadow Fall is larger, open-ended levels that successfully mix elements of open world and traditional shooter gameplay.
