Review Killzone: Mercenary (PlayStation Vita)
The price is right
We may be on the cusp of a new console generation, but we’d be surprised if any of the PlayStation 4’s launch window titles made a bigger visual impression than Killzone: Mercenary. The hotly anticipated spin-off from the recently restructured Guerrilla Cambridge is a sensory showstopper, pushing the PlayStation Vita’s...

About The Game
Killzone: Mercenary gives a new perspective on the Killzone Universe. This time you’re not an Army grunt who follows orders - you’re freelancer, a gun for hire, a soldier of fortune.
These guys don’t play by the rules or fight for any flag. They’re in it for the money.
The client might give the objective, but they’re not going to be telling you how to do your job. You get to pick your own gear and tactics; as long as you get the results.
Killzone: Mercenary hosts a full single player Campaign, spread over 9 missions. In addition to the main missions, there is a new Contracts mode, offering an additional 27 sets of objectives.
You can choose from three difficulty settings; Recruit Trooper and Veteran. The harder the difficulty selected the higher the rewards gained.

I'm loving KZ3 so really looking forward to this
i never had a chance to play any killzone should i get it for the vita
@geofri1997 after LBP, its my favorite sony franchise. Its non-stop action. If you have a PS3, get KZ2, and KZ3. KZ2 is harder, but KZ3 is less linear
If your are wondering if you should get this game, stop right now get in the car and run to the local game retailer and get it! This the game that make games like Halo and Gears of War green with envy! This is a man's FPS and I don't want you to miss out on its awesomeness!
They got Killzone 3 to run on the Vita so I can't wait for this to come out. Plus all the Killzone's look incredible so I can't wait to see this on the OLED HD Vita screen.
Definitely need to pick this bad boy up day 1 :3
