In Shadow Fall, you are cast as Lucas Kellan, a young ISA soldier with an understandable hatred for the Helghast.
Put all of that aside for a moment, though, and you’re left with a middling first-person shooter, a collection of generic shooting segments and frustrating exploration sequences made more interesting only by their visual splendor and the (sometimes problematic) use of the DualShock 4’s touch pad. Textures are superbly detailed, the draw distance is exceptional, and the number of lighting and shadow effects on-screen all at once allows for a greater sense of immersion than perhaps ever before. When I purchased Killzone: Shadow Fall, my thinking was that I would definitely want to have a game available to me at launch that said “Hey, this is why you bought a PlayStation 4.” I longed for something beautiful, and that much I received. It’s a shame that such a spectacular backdrop isn’t more fully explored with exemplary gameplay. The city as depicted in that brief moment truly is breathtaking, more beautiful than anything I can recall ever exploring on PlayStation 3. Watching me work through that segment of the game this past week, my wife remarked that she wished she could live in a place like that. Rivers ended in cascading waterfalls that were mirrored in the glinting reflection offered by towering glass walls. A futuristic aircraft of some sort-not quite a transport helicopter, but close-descended toward a magnificent city rising above a picturesque bay. The brief interactive demo revealed an absolutely gorgeous scene. "It's easy to praise Killzone: Shadow Fall for being gorgeous, but you'll have to search a bit harder to find other things to love about it."ĭuring its 2013 media briefing at E3, Sony revealed the first footage I ever saw of Killzone: Shadow Fall.
