Killzone 2 gets original maps

A second Killzone 2 map pack, 'Flash and Thunder' has been unveiled, featuring two maps from the PS2 original.

The pack features Beach Head and Southern Hills maps, which are apparently "two of the best" arenas from the original Killzone- now completely remade for PS3.

The Beach Head map sees the ISA tasked with defending a coastal stronghold against a Helghast landing force. This rain-lashed and windswept battlefield is limited in size "which means more action, more hand-to-hand combat, plenty of sneaking up on the enemy and melee kills galore", says SCE.

The Southern Hills map sees the ISA attempting to storm a Helghast compound on top of a hill. "A mixture of built-up terrain and wide open spaces - perfect for headshot sniper kills - this map is full of hiding places and offers the perfect battlefield for a large-scale game with lots of players," notes the platform holder.

The Flash and Thunder Pack will arrive on the PlayStation Store on June 11.
