One thing missing yesterday when Killzone: Mercenary had nearly everything revealed – release date, multiplayer, gameplay – was the box art we can expect to see when it comes to store shelves on September 17th.

Well, thanks to Amazon posting it and Sony confirming it, we now know that this will be the official Killzone: Mercenary box art:

If you checked PSLS earlier today, you would have noticed that Grand Theft Auto V was announced with a September 17th release date, the same day as Killzone: Mercenary. In response to this, the Killzone Twitteraccount simply issued the following humorous statement:

@RockstarGames come at me bro

While this shows that they aren’t scared, it wouldn’t be difficult to think that Sony will realize they need to shift the date and bump it up to September 10th to avoid the biggest game of the year.

LOL GUERILLA CAMBRIDGE IS AWESOME - COME AT ME BRO

Thats a badass box art

Humorous comment, although it will definitely need a new release date.

I'm not too sure about the central figure in the box art, he looks a little at odds with what I've come to expect from the Killzone universe, but otherwise I like it. (I still can't get over how small the boxes are though, only seen them recently at a Gamestop.)

They are in there for the money. GTA - Skeletons in the closet characters and these mercenaries. Not a bad box art i guess.

I like the way one side has the ISA and the other has the Helghast.

ugly box art if you ask me, but they seriously need to bump up the release date of the game, going head to head with gta is NOT a good idea! but helarious response from killzone twitter account

Yep, approve of the box art, very nice.

And lol at the message.
