Note: Due to the size of the full game and patch, users who purchase the digital version of the game will need 4.6GB of free space on their PS Vita memory card, and therefore will need at a minimum an 8GB PS Vita memory card.

If you thought the battle lines were clear, youā€™ve not seen the whole story. Killzoneā„¢ Mercenary for the PlayStationĀ®Vita systemā€”winner of IGNā€™s Best PS Vita Game of E3 2013ā€”throws players into a deadly firefight as part of a ruthless Mercenary faction, one taking on paid contracts from not only the dangerous ISA but the vicious Helghast as well. In Killzoneā„¢ Mercenary, there is no good. There is no evil. There is only the mission... and the money. Ā War is Our Business.

Developed by Guerrilla Cambridge, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, Killzoneā„¢ Mercenary is the first handheld entry in the series to retain the console titlesā€™ first-person shooter gameplay and which promises to combine an epic single-player campaign with a substantial multiplayer offering. Developed exclusively for the PlayStationĀ®Vita system.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Full Campaign Mode: Play through 9 massive single-player missions, each with additional challenges and special objectives.
Breathtaking Graphics: Built on the same Killzoneā„¢ engine used on PlayStationĀ®3 system, Killzoneā„¢ Mercenary has stunning visuals and the smooth gameplay shows off the PS Vita system like no other game.
Robust Multiplayer: Intense combat for up to 8 players keeps the competition fierce.
Customize Across Modes: Customize your Mercā€™s loadout in Campaign and Multiplayer modes with armor, weapons and more. Customizations to your Merc apply to both modes!

The industryā€™s most respected gaming sites agree, Killzoneā„¢ Mercenary is the FPS PS Vita owners have been waiting for.
