A new Killzone project has entered the very early stages of production, a development reported by outlets including GamesReviews.com, Shane the Gamer, ComicBook.com, Gamereactor UK and MP1st. The announcement references an upcoming PS5 title in the franchise that has not seen a new release since 2013, ending a long period of inactivity for the series.
