People Can Fly is developing a remaster of the PlayStation FPS Killzone.

Reports point to a possible early-stage Killzone project involving People Can Fly, but they do not establish that the studio is developing a remaster rather than a remake, or confirm the project officially.

Key Evidence

Verified September 7, 2026
  • Multiple September 7, 2026 reports describe a rumored Killzone project in very early development and identify People Can Fly as a possible external partner.

  • The reports consistently leave open whether the project is a remake or a remaster, and no supplied source confirms the distinction.

  • A PlayStation deal involving People Can Fly and an existing Sony intellectual property is cited as supporting context, but the sources do not conclusively link that deal to Killzone.

The reporting

What the Evidence Shows

Several reports published on September 7, 2026, citing an earlier report from MP1st, say Guerrilla Games may be working with an external studio on a new Killzone project. People Can Fly is repeatedly identified as the likely partner, and the project is described as being in a very early stage of development. That supports the existence of a credible industry report, but not a confirmed announcement.gagadget.comgagadget.comKillzone is coming backshanethegamer.comshanethegamer.comKillzone Remake Rumoured in Early Development, People Can Fly Tipped to Build It+3 more

The specific description in the claim is not established. IGN, Polygon, and other reports characterize the project as either a remake or a remaster, while noting that the precise game and format remain unclear. The reports generally speculate that the original 2004 PlayStation 2 game could be the subject, but none of the supplied sources confirms that detail.sea.ign.comsea.ign.comPlayStation Reportedly Plotting New Killzonepolygon.compolygon.comAn Iconic Playstation FPS Is Coming Back, Claims New Report+2 more

People Can Fly does have a reported or previously announced agreement with PlayStation to develop a game based on an existing Sony intellectual property, and some outlets connect that agreement to the rumored Killzone project. However, the supplied evidence does not directly confirm that the agreement concerns Killzone, nor that People Can Fly has formally begun developing a remaster. The claim therefore goes beyond what the available reporting can verify.stevivor.comstevivor.comKillzone Remake Reportedly Underway at People Can Fly as Horizon Plans Shiftvalosettings.comvalosettings.comKillzone Rumor Says Remaster or Remake is Coming From an External Studio
