It is second hand held title in Killzone series of games and 5th overall. It is first installment to not be developed by Guerrila Games directly. Game was developed in University City of Cambridge in United Kingdom. 

After the ending of original Killzone and revisiting many of events from Killzone trilogy, game puts player in rugged combat boots of a mercenary named Arran Danner. The Danner who is an old UCA soldier has no qualms about taking on paid contracts from ISA as well as Heighast. When a seemingly routine mission to evacuator to Vektan Ambassador with his family whose living in Pyrrhus goes awry, the Danner discovers that outcome of war could very well depend on fate of young son of Ambassador. Both sides going increasingly desperate the lengths to get hold of him, he begins wonder whether price of victory really worth paycheck.


First time in a Killzone campaign the players will be fighting alongside Heighast forces as well as ISA specialists, carrying out the missions those soldiers can not. As mercenary the players free to choose which tactics & load outs they will use to fulfill their contract, employers will reward the players with weaponry if successfully completed.

Unlike previous Killzone installments mercenary was not developed by Guerrila games but in their sister studio of Gurrilla Cambridge. In comparison to pervious installments Mercenary will apparently offer `the series biggest weapon load out yet'. Due this larger weapon load out it accommodates a wider variety of styles than in the Killzone games. The Weapons are more powerful than pervious installments.
