The Killzone franchise has become synonymous with PlayStation as an exclusive FPS developed by Guerrilla Games. Launching alongside the PS4, Killzone: Shadow Fall marked the debut of the franchise on next-gen consoles with groundbreaking visuals and competitive online modes that are unique to the franchise. At E3 2014, Guerrilla Games debuted the Killzone: Shadow Fall Intercept trailer which is all about co-op. As Victor Zuylen from GG put it:

 is all about team play. It’s about you and three team mates fighting off wave after wave of AI-controlled Helghast attackers as you try to establish a communications Uplink to the VSA headquarters, with only your weapons and your unique Combat Role abilities to protect you 

The all-new DLC will be available for free to Killzone: Shadow Fall season passholders on June 25th and for purchase in early August to general gamers as a standalone game. The expansive DLC brings with it four key combat roles which include Assault, Marksman, Medic, and Tactician and it’s all about team work. The trailer below gives you sense of just how integral co-op is to Killzone: Shadow Fall Intercept.

So what else can we expect from the DLC? Let’s talk details.

With co-op playing center stage, each game map is based on the single player campaign and will have certain objectives to go along with it. Those include randomly spawned Petrusite capacitors that need to be captured. If you can capture and retrieve one to your camp, then you’ll be rewarded with one of the following bonuses:

• Full recapture:
  Instantly recapture all Uplink terminals in enemy hands.
• Full resupply:
  Instantly restock all ammo and health.
• Free respawn:
  The next respawn will not penalize the Team Score.
• Minigun:
  All players receive a minigun in their loadout.
• Mortar strike:
  Call in a mortar strike on the map. Remember to take cover!
• Double damage:
  All players deal double damage for a limited time.
• Turrets:
  Activate the dormant turret platforms located throughout the level.
• Jetpack:
  All players receive a jetpack in their loadout.

If you’re looking to get in on the co-op action but don’t have a season pass, fear not as you can still purchase the Killzone: Shadow Fall season pass that will give you day one access to Killzone: Shadow Fall Intercept.
