Killzone 2 was furnished with a pair of Killzone maps and equally Killzone 3 will receive two Killzone 2 maps, namely the Salamum Market and Blood Gracht. The maps will be available as part of the Collector’s and Helghast Editions of Killzone 3, or as a pre-order bonus for the standard edition from an as-yet-unannounced retailer. Presumably the pack will also be available via the PSN.
Each map has been updated for Killzone 3 to take advantage of the threequel’s features. Guerilla have released the following description:
SALAMUN MARKET
Game Type: Warzone (24 Players)
Description: One of the largest maps from Killzone 2, Salamun Market has been re-balanced for maximum Killzone 3 carnage. After the Helghast ambush an ISA convoy on its main road, the whole market becomes a Warzone. Nostalgia meets brand-new Exoskeleton combat on this classic multiplayer map!
BLOOD GRACHT
Game Type: Guerrilla Warfare (16 Players)
Description: Months after the nuclear blast that ruined most of the city, Blood Gracht is slowly being reclaimed by Helghan’s strange plant life. But when Guerrilla Warfare breaks out between ISA and Helghast troops, the canals once again run red with blood. The fan-favorite multiplayer map from Killzone 2 makes a triumphant return!

Brilliant I already pre-ordered the helghast edition in HMV a month ago. Thanks to whoever mentioned that here on TSA =D

Glad to see this – looking forward to the new maps but nice to see a couple of classics coming back with a new twist. I disagree with a few of the peeps above, I loved Radec so I’m hopeful they might add that in at some stage.

Those maps seem good choices.
I’m just buying the standard edition (got it on pre-order for £33), as the others just seem too expensive.
Probably just buy the Retro pack off the PS Store at some point.
