Guerrilla Games’ Killzone 3 is out next week worldwide. The game recently played host to an open beta via the PlayStation Network and, according to its Dutch developers, the team learned a lot from the trial period.
So much so that the studio is preparing a major post-launch update for the game’s multiplayer department.
The laundry list of fixes/changes include support for color blind players, enhanced custom game functionality, and the funniest of the bunch: “overly enthusiastic death screams will be toned down.”
To see the full list, check out Guerrilla Games’ post.
