The developers did not name the reasons for shutting down the servers. It can be assumed that titles are no longer so popular. Some online users agree that some modes were unplayable due to low player numbers.

If you add to the shutdown of the servers of the last parts of Killzone, then they were in January of last year canceled official site Kill zoneso everything points to one thing: the Killzone brand is gone, and Guerrilla Games is unlikely to just return to it.
