Guerrilla Games: leaked Killzone 2 beta footage is just for “ego-boost”

If you heard or saw that “leaked” Killzone 2 footage supposedly from the beta, then you better hear what Guerrilla Games has to say about it. No, it’s not from a public beta, it’s from the ongoing private one exclusive for employees only. And yes, the “leaker” was obviously no team-player and was just more interested in “boosting his ego”. Ouch.

So there was a supposed leaked Killzone 2 footage circulating the net. It’s firing up a storm over at the GameTrailers forums so much so that Guerrilla Games, through motherh, put up their own response via the PlayStation blog.

Here’s what the devs have to say regarding the leakage:

Just to stop all this confusion. There is a private closed Sony-internal beta going on. No journalists, only employees. This chap obviously does not like being an employee and morte interested in boosting his ego on the gametrailers forums. VIPs are not yet involved either. As before, we’ll be providing more info on the public beta later in the year and I am not going to dicuss the details of what is going on now in any detail. You guys simply have to trust us that we know what we are doing.

Well all’s clear and dandy, then, isn’t it? Guess we really should just trust the devs with what they’re doing. Besides, no need to rush. The invites have already been sent out for the public beta later this year, anyway. We’re sure we’ll get more “legit” footage then.
