We knew the writing was on the wall when our power needs became so demanding that our neighbors started to experience brownouts. Adding an electrical transformer allowed us to at least finish Killzone 3 without bringing down the whole block, but the rising number of employees and the start of a new IP meant it was only going to be a temporary reprieve. (And were still hiring, by the way. You can check out guerrilla-games.com/jobs for a full overview of available positions.)

What type of game do you guys think they should make? Another shooter?

I think Guerrilla should try their hand at a RPG.

or maybe another top-down actioner like Liberation

Hot Coldman · Dec 23, 2010

Brownouts?!? ewwwww

Oh, I hope this new IP actually has colour

SolsticeZero · Dec 23, 2010

I wouldn't mind a 3rd person open-world game from them. They got the graphics talent to make it beautiful.\

EDIT: Actually, now that I think about it, I wouldn't mind a top-down game, either. I really loved Killzone Liberation on the PSP.

KZObsessed · Dec 23, 2010

Yeah they mentioned this at their GDC keynote I believe. I recall it being reported as a PS3 game rather than PSP2 but it was joystiq who reported that so don't take it as concrete or anything

Multiple open world FPS/RPG with space travel/combat would be my dream game.

Zoramon089 · Dec 23, 2010

It'll probably be an FPS or TPS

StealthGoblin · Dec 23, 2010

They actually have two studios/teams, so it looks like they'll be working on two IP's at the same time.

LiK · Dec 23, 2010

Hope its cute and colorful.

Doing open world differs a lot from what they can make pretty at the moment (small boxes). But yeah, a third person game from them would be interesting.

Spiegel · Dec 23, 2010

If Sony has learned anything from this generation this will be a PSP2 game coming from the new team inside Guerrilla.

I want to believe that all the top class SCE developers have created smaller teams to develop games for their next handheld.

"Hallo, we come in peace" a First Person Sci-Fi Shooter

Shiggy · Dec 23, 2010

Either Killzone Sports, Killzone RPG, Killzone Kart or Killzone at the Olympic Games. Oh well, it's not Nintendo.

I'd say it's unfair to call what they've shown from KZ3 "small boxes". The scope/size of the levels is pretty damn good this time around.

Thats precisely what I think needs to happen.

The big studios all need a dedicated portable team in their buildings.

Evolution Studios model of having a satellite studio works well too.

Neuromancer · Dec 23, 2010

I'd be curious to see what they do, I'm pretty much done with Killzone after that last one.

Dennis · Dec 23, 2010

RPG?

No way, it is going to be a money sink MMO just like the other idiot developers who think they can make money with that.

There's still a big difference going from a closed (small compared to an open world the size of GTA) area where the player won't be poking around every corner looking for stuff, to a full blown world where the player is given complete control over movement and the likes.

While Guerilla probably could make something pretty, it would not be KZ3 pretty.

you should see their Lost Boys Games resume

anonymousAversa · Dec 23, 2010

Hell yes!

I'd love to see an open world/sandbox game!!!

Firewire · Dec 23, 2010

New shooter incoming? I can't see them straying that far from a shooter, it's what they know how to do best. A top down Liberation style game would be awesome.

Kartzone.

Killzone Liberation is one of the best games on PSP, I'd like to see another one like that.

This.

revolverjgw · Dec 23, 2010

Something akin to Colony Wars please. It would fill a void and I can see them nailing the style.

The Praiseworthy · Dec 23, 2010

Horror Game... I have feelings if they made it it would be very epic

â Narayan · Dec 23, 2010

Please don't be a shooting game.

DaBuddaDa · Dec 23, 2010

MurderSector, a sci-fi FPS.

Wtf else are they supposed to make, they've only made shooters so far.

theBishop · Dec 23, 2010

One gaping hole in Sony's first party lineup is Western RPG. I wanted to see Santa Monica or Insomniac try it, but Guerrilla could be good too.

Or anything that let them revisit the top-down mechanics in Liberation would be sweet.

snoopeasystreet · Dec 23, 2010

Friend Zone - Helghan dating sim

Gareth Bale · Dec 23, 2010

Is "brown out" an Sunny reference?

Good that they're working on a new IP. I recently played Killzone 2 and it's boring as fuck.

"Hallo, Killer", the touching story of a girl who moves in with a boy who ends up being a serial killer; then she finds out he killed her parents years ago. Plays just like heavy rain but with the Killzone engine.

I don't think sony is interested to make an rpg internally. And you can't just order developer who mainly make platformer, shooter, or action game to suddenly make rpg. The most you can hope is for sony to work with 3rd party dev who already have the experience to make rpg, then if it's successful, decide to buy the developer.

Sony already have a big Studio (SOE) that make MMOs exclusively.

ND jumped from just making kiddie platformers to TPS very nicely , many other devs did this too.

With regards to electricity, a 'brown out' is a drop in voltage of an electirical supply. It causes lights to dim.

A blackout is loss of current altogether, causing all lights to be 'off'.

Dr. Kitty Muffins · Dec 23, 2010

They should try their hand at a game similar to Summoner, IMO.

Fortinbras · Dec 23, 2010

This has been confirmed a few months ago.

Kiddy platformers? Jak and Daxter? Why I oughta...

Jak and Daxter and Crash Bandicoot aren't exactly aimed at a mature audience. Great games, but they were targeted at younger people primarily.

PjotrStroganov · Dec 23, 2010

They really should let a small team do a new HD liberation for PS3, using the KZ3 engine.

vpance · Dec 23, 2010

I'd like to see them make Demon's Souls 2.

Elios83 · Dec 23, 2010

This has been known for a while, the game should be well in development at this point.
I wouldn't be surprised if their next IP is something like Mass Effect.

makingmusic476 · Dec 23, 2010

They've actually opened a new studio to work on said IP.

To be fair, GG wouldn't exactly be the one that needs to expand to handle multiplatform development. They were the one western first party studio that managed to create a PSP1 title, Liberation. All other western first party titles were outsourced, save those from Sony Bend and Sony Cambridge, but even Resistance and LittleBigPlanet were still outsourced from their original developers.

.la1n · Dec 23, 2010

Did you guys follow the story in Killzone 1? I don't want GG working on anything that requires a cohesive narrative to drive the game.

Well they also stated that Killzone 3 is the first game where they're actually trying with the story, in their previous games it simply wasn't the reason to play.

meppi · Dec 23, 2010

I wish someone would make a great Colony Wars/Elite type of game for the PS3...
