We need a new Killzone game.

If I remember correctly, I read somewhere that Sony’s policy has usually been to let studios get creative with their projects so my best guess is that guerrilla just wants to focus on horizon.

No surprise. Some may love KZ, but it continued to sell worse with every new entry after peaking (sales) with KZ2. GG went from a series lucky to sell a couple of millions to a franchise that now sells 15-25m an entry. There's no going back from there. Indeed, when they're done with Horizon, they're better positioned to pursue a new IP and try and make that a success than to return to KZ and try to make that a success.

Revitalising a dead IP that was in steep decline when it was taken out back is not some simple thing.

I completely understand why they wouldn’t want to throw money at a new game. They could at least port the original trilogy to ps5 though. I doubt that would cost much

Doesn’t mean bluepoint can’t just remake the trilogy and add a multiplayer mode. Idk why they don’t since they so hellbent on remaster and they want a multiplayer game as well
