It will probably sell well (between 900k and 1.2 million) and be well received (82 metacritic score), so I don't expect it to flop.

It will certainly be much better than either of those games

This is actually one game that a decent amount of people are interested in. I think it will get to 500K pretty easily. I know I'm getting it day 1.

Actually it is made by Cambridge studios, in collaboration with Guerrilla. IMO it will have a good critical reception, and probably decent sales. Im predicting a 70-80 score, and probably a 500-900k sales, without bundles, LT.


More than just close collaboration. Cambridge Studio is now officially Guerrilla Cambridge.

"But the biggest highlight of the year was being able to welcome SCE Cambridge Studio into our fold. We’ve officially become a multi-studio company! Guerrilla Cambridge — as our new sister studio is known — is working hard to ensure that Killzone: Mercenary will be the ultimate handheld first-person shooter experience when it launches for PlayStation Vita in 2013."

If the game as high quality as it looks it could actually be a break out title

Great graphics, great FPS controls, and a strong online component could make it huge as there really never has been that combination on a handheld device

At the same time if the games poor quality and the Vita doesnt improve in sales it could completely flop. So far Im rather optimistic for the title

Call of duty is reaching half a million sold. 15 percent attach rate is hardly a flop. Critically sure.

Anyway, Killzone should do pretty well.


The savior of the vita and a game that usually sells more than 20 million copies, yes 500k is a huge flop

I hope it goes well and killzone Mercenary gets a good review. If it gets a 7.0 I am buying it because usually they compare the PS3 killzone's = KZ2 and KZ3. But the PS Vita is a handheld any game like the console version get a 7.0 they only expect it to be better. If you ask me I think it will get an average review score and higher if it's good or great. I am hyped for the Helghast campain. If it doesn't sell we'll I hope so if it gets good reviews GO GUERRILLA GAMES. if Killzone Mercenary flops I at least hope the next sequel in the franchise goes well = KILLZONE 4 on PS Orbis or whatever it will be called. 😃
