Plot synopsis[edit]

The series is set in the 24th century, showing the galactic war between the Interplanetary Strategic Alliance (ISA) and the Helghan Empire. The Killzone series follows the continuous war between the ISA and Helghast taking place on both ISA Earth colonies and the planet Helghan, the home planet of the Helghast. The series has featured four main protagonists: Cpt/Col. Jan Templar (Killzone and Killzone: Liberation), Sgt. Tomas 'Sev' Sevchenko (Killzone 2 and Killzone 3), mercenary Arran Danner (Killzone: Mercenary), and Shadow Marshal Lucas Kellan (Killzone Shadow Fall). The main antagonist was originally Helghast Autarch Scolar Visari; his death in Killzone 2 brought about the rise of two new antagonists and the hopeful heirs to Visari's throne in Killzone 3: Jorhan Stahl and Admiral Orlock. After Orlock's death and the unknown details of Stahl's death and the destruction of Helghan, now covered in petrusite, the Helghast now live on Vekta with a giant wall dividing them from the Vektans. 'The Black Hand', a Helghast paramilitary terrorist group, was formed under Vladko Tyran, who became an antagonist, along with Lady Hera Visari (Scolar Visari's daughter) who has inherited her father's throne. By the end of Killzone Shadow Fall, it is revealed that the main antagonist is Stahl, who managed to survive the events of Killzone 3, but is dispatched by Vektan Security Agency director Thomas Sinclair.

Games[edit]

Main series[edit]

Killzone[edit]

Killzone was released for the PlayStation 2 in 2004. The game is set in 2357, where the Helghast Empire has recovered from its defeat in the First Extrasolar War and launched a blitzkrieg against the outer Interplanetary Strategic Alliance (ISA) colony planet Vekta. Vekta's orbital Strategic Defense (S.D.) platforms failed during the initial assault, allowing the Helghast to land swarms of soldiers onto the surface and making it difficult for the outnumbered ISA forces. Captain Jan Templar, the main protagonist, and his squad are ordered back to the base for reassignment, and are sent to find the ISA operative Hakha and the key in his possession. Templar meets other characters who assist him such as Shadow Marshal Luger (a female special operations assassin), a heavy weapons specialist Sergeant Rico Velasquez (a Helghast-hating soldier with an itchy trigger finger), and Colonel Hakha, a half-Helghast, half-Human spy.

Killzone 2[edit]

Killzone 2 was released for the PlayStation 3 in 2009. Killzone 2 follows the events of Killzone and Killzone: Liberation, and is set on the planet Helghan, the home world of the Helghast who invaded an Interplanetary Strategic Alliance (ISA) colony. Two years after the Helghast assault on Vekta, the ISA has launched an assault on the enemy's homeworld of Helghan. The ISA goal is to capture the Helghast leader, Scolar Visari and bring the Helghast war machine to a halt. The main protagonists is Sergeant Tomas 'Sev' Sevchenko, a battle-hardened veteran of the special forces unit the 'Legion' assigned to Alpha team, who go on a mission to take out the Helghast threat. Captain Jan Templar has been promoted to Colonel and is the Fleet Commander of the New Sun, a Cruiser airship set up in the clouds of Helghan over its capital city, Pyrrhus, preparing for a final attack. During the invasion of Helghan, Sev's unit is deployed behind enemy lines to assist the main invasion force. Tasked with securing the enemy capital of Pyrrhus, Helghan's first true city, the team discovers that the Helghast are a more formidable enemy on their home planet. They adjusted to Helghan's hostile conditions and have harnessed the power of the lightning storms that always occur on Helghan which they can use against the ISA. A cold, barren, unforgiving world, Helghan provides a ready defense with thick, acidic air, dust clouds, and violent surgical lightning storms.^[1]

Killzone 3[edit]

Killzone 3 was released for the PlayStation 3 in 2011 and is the only game in the series to feature a special edition, support the PlayStation Move, and utilize 3D gaming. It follows the events of Killzone 2. Visari, the leader of the Helghast is gone, but the war is far from over. Helghast forces have mounted a devastating counterattack, prompting the ISA (Interplanetary Strategic Alliance) evacuation of planet Helghan. As new Helghast battalions appear, armed with more powerful weapons, ISA forces find themselves outmanned, outgunned and surrounded. Two new antagonists, Jorhan Stahl and Admiral Orlock, both want to become the new Autarch of Helghan. Sev returns as the protagonist with Rico and Narville. Admiral Orlock eventually becomes the new Autarch due to a circumstantial decision by the Helghan High Council. In a final confrontation between Stahl and Orlock, Stahl murders Orlock, however, the planet Helghan and Stahls ship is nuked by Sev and his team. However, it revealed that a ship crash landed on Helghan and is greeted by two Helghan soldiers.

Killzone Shadow Fall[edit]

Killzone Shadow Fall was released for the PlayStation 4 in November 2013. It served as a launch title. The game is set nearly 30 years after the events of Killzone 3. Vektans live side by side with Helghans, though their portions of the city are divided by a massive wall that is known as 'The Wall'. Helghan citizens are placed and take refuge inside of Vekta, becoming known as Traitors, since they left their side of The Wall, which was claimed as New Helghan. The protagonist, Lucas Kellan, is orphaned when he and his father, Michael, are spotted with Thomas Sinclair, a Shadow Marshal, who attempts to lead them out of the side that was being taken by the Helghan forces after the 'Terracide' that occurred in Killzone 3. Kellan's father is shot down by two Helghan soldiers when they are spotted, but Lucas is saved by Sinclair.

20 years later, Kellan has been brought up by Sinclair and has become the youngest Shadow Marshal within the Vektan Security Agency (VSA), while Sinclair has become Director of the VSA. Shadow Mashals are specially trained soldiers. Their main mission is to preserve the peace between the Vektans and Helghast and prevent this from declining. During his travels between Vekta and across the Wall into New Helghast as he undertakes missions to deal with possible Helghan threats, he comes to realize that New Helghan is full of civilians who are innocent. He also meets a Helghan Intelligence Operative,'Echo', a half-breed who is Chancellor Visari's daughter. Kellan is imprisoned and tortured when he is caught in New Helghast. Echo helps him escape to find out that Jorhan Stahl has a 'weapon' designed that would annihilate Vektans and half-breeds, which he considers traitors. When Kellan is in reach to kill Stahl; Stahl is shot in the head from behind. Kellan turns to see Sinclair, who also kills Kellan. Sinclair is hailed a hero after killing Kellan and recovering the weapon. Echo, who survived the impact of the crash, sneaks into Vekta and when Sinclair is giving a speech, she assassinates him.

2897d agoActually, Killzone is a series that that wouldn't fit a trilogy format. I think it needs 5 games to cover all it has to offer.Resistance, even though it has a better story, is a series that would've been a perfect 3-game saga (with one psp game). But Insomniac screwed up the third game and made it about rednecks in the USA. The third game should've been Jame Grayson uncovering the truth about the Chimera in Russia, as hinted in the after-credits scene of Resistance Retribution.Same with Halo. Should've stayed a trilogy. Maybe Reach added for backstory.

ODST and 4,5,6 need to disappear somehow. 2897d agoGameplay-wise, R3 is probably the most well-achieved and certainly most fun FPS I ever experienced on Playstation. Taking headshots with the Marksman for example is an incredible feeling that is unparalleled in the world of console shooters. It's like the Timesplitters of this gen. And I haven't even mentioned all the brilliantly designed weapons, the engrossing particle effects and gore. I would even dare to state that while there are lots of good FPS'ers this gen, R3's gameplay will prolly suffer the least from aging.

2897d ago (Edited 2897d ago )I'm of the opinion that if your franchise is over ten years old you have to have an 'end' in sight. Killzone doesn't need to die just yet, but the end of Killzone 3 might as well have ended with 'to be continued.'

The point is that in order to really mean something there has to be a beginning and an end. In terms of Killzone that means peace; no more war, no more talking and no more Rico.If they were to just fight constantly for another five games the validity of the franchise will be for naught, because no matter how hard your characters fought the good fight there would be no end in sight. See my point?

2897d agoThe Helghast have all the best characters. 2897d agoIt should end with the next one.

You can argue that it should end after 3 games. But really most people don't even remember the first one so Killzone 3 is actually the 2nd in the series in their minds. Which is fine seeing as how it is the second game on ps3, the second game to star Sev, and the first game's mechanics were so drastically different from kz2 and kz3. The first game has alt fire for all the weapons and you could play as rico and the other members of your team. Killzone 2 was the start of the Sev trilogy which should end with Kz4. 2897d agoKillzone 3 was one of the best games this generation.

That campaign was incredible! People hated it because there was too much action.which makes absolutely no sense to me.:/ I thought it gave us just as much action as Modern Warfare 1/2, but with a LOT more interactivity during that action. That is, after all, what we want!Killzone 2 was a great game, but there was practically no story whatsoever. KZ3 had an ever-changing story that worked very well and actually made me like the ISA.

2896d agoI wanted Kz to end at three, to me the Kz franchise is a three kind of franchise with maybe one or two games that are prequel or so. If four comes out ill be fine with it as long as the story gets more improved from three. Kz3 seems like GG was getting better with the story. I hope GG can get some better voice acting for ISA cause Helghast have great voice acting why not ISA.

I do hope though GG goes back to what made kz2 mp great and put back everything in there in four. Kz3 mp was such a letdown it was completely water-down and stripped just to please the whiners who don't like unique and change in kz2.
