Jimmy Fallon plays Killzone: Shadow Fall (badly)

By Ryan Fleming February 22, 2013

One of the first PlayStation 4 titles to be displayed during the PlayStation event on Wednesday night was Guerrilla Games’ Killzone: Shadow Fall. The game will be set 30 years after the events of Killzone 3 and take place (at least partially) in Vekta City, the site of many Helgast atrocities, as well as the location of a section from the original Killzone.

During the presentation, Guerrilla Game’s Managing Director, Herman Hulst, described the setting as being akin to the Cold War, with Helgast and Vektans living together. That’s when all hell breaks loose.

The demo on stage was brief, but it gave us a taste of the game and the PS4’s potential.

The following night, Hulst appeared on Jimmy Fallon and discussed some of the PS4’s features, then showed the game off. He even let Fallon play a bit. Check it out below.

Nintendo Switch 2: release date rumors, features we want, and more

Prime Day Nintendo Switch Deals

Rumors of a Nintendo Switch 2 (or Switch Pro) have been circulating for years. Whispers of the next-gen Nintendo console first started when The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was initially teased in 2019, gained steam when the Switch OLED launched in 2021, and are increasing now that the standard Switch has been out for six years.

There's no doubt that the Nintendo Switch is a fantastic console -- it has a unique and impressive game library (with more upcoming games slated for this year), the number of features included with Nintendo Switch Online is constantly improving, and it's still our favorite portable console -- but it isn't without its flaws. There's enough room for improvement to warrant an entirely new console in the near future. Nintendo recently announced that we wouldn't see a Switch upgrade in the next fiscal year, meaning the absolute earliest we get a look at a new Nintendo console would be in late 2024.
