Horizon, already a cult saga!
Guerrilla, that’s a lot of iconic and unforgettable games! We think first of games from the Killzone franchise, which debuted on PlayStation 2 in 2004, and to a lesser extent ShellShock: Nam ’67.
As a guerrilla, we’ve done a lot of hard work since the beginning, developing immersive 3D games with Shellshock: Nam ’67 and Killzone. Unexpectedly, our small studio was quickly catapulted onto the world stage. Killzone’s Galactic War captured gamers’ imaginations, and we’re proud to have made our mark in the industry and developed a first-person shooter for Sony. guerrilla
Today, Of course, when we talk about guerrilla, the Horizon games come to mind. That’s good, because for the studio’s 20th anniversary, Sony’s flagship franchise has just announced its impressive sales numbers, to say the least.
