Killzone 2 Walkthru Part I: Corinth River

Things to know before you begin

The entire game consists of large battles with many Helghast. To take the least amount of damage, you'll need to get used to taking cover, using L1 (melee attack), and sprinting for cover, using L3 (sprint).

You can tell how much damage you've taken by the amount of blood that splatters onto your screen. Your health will recharge if you're not taking any damage.

You'll also be able to tell from which direction the enemy is shooting you from by where the blood on the screen splatters. This will help you know where to run to take cover.

Grenades are very easy to find throughout the game, so feel free to use them when you come across large groups of Helghast.

You'll use assault rifles throughout the game. They don't have the best far-range accuracy, but if you pay attention to your crosshair and shoot your enemies while the reticle is red, you'll get really good at using them. Short burst shooting is also seems to be much more accurate then holding the fire button.

When one of your teammates becomes incapacitated, you'll hear them yell for your help and there will be an arrow on your screen indicating their location. If you can, try to revive your fallen comrades as soon as possible because they really do help keep the Helghan from killing you.

Killzone 2: Corinth River

The New Sun

You start the game waking up to an announcement over the P.A. system. Garza will come into your room to talk to you when an announcement calls your squad.

Follow Garza down to the end of the hallway. Along the way, you'll learn how to check your objectives (select button) and how to find your objective destination (up directional button).

Wait for Garza to open the door and you'll meet Rico, who introduces you to the council scientist, Evelyn.

Tap the up directional button to find the door you need to go through to get to the launch bay. Wait for Garza to open it and head down the ramp.

Corinth Sands

Here's where you'll learn to fight. Once you land on the beach you'll be given an objective to rendevouz with Echo squad. You'll also be shown how to fire your weapon (R1).

Continue following the beach. Around the very first wall, right after landing on the beach, you'll find three Helghast on top of another wall.

To reload your weapon, press Square. You should get used to doing this after every encounter, because you'll find yourself reloading at the worst times if you don't.

Hold L1 to attach to cover. This will be very handy when you find yourself in large battles. It'll will make your assault much easier.

Eventually you'll come to an area where enemy Helghast are high up on a bridge, where they are shooting and firing mortars. There is a stack of explosives to the left of Helghast on the machine gun all the way to the right. Shoot these and you'll take out the bridge.

In the next area, you'll have to take out a few Helghast. There are two of them on higher platforms, one of which you can take out using an explosive barrel. After this, head to the end of the beach.

You'll encounter a battle taking place. I recommend staying to the left of the battle and ducking behind the barbed wire instead of running to wear your squad is. Watch out for the Helghast on top of the tank first, because he will cause the most damage. After you kill all of the Helghast here, find Rico and wait for him to give you and Garza orders to head up the elevator.

Garza will run over the elevator and wait for you. Activate the elevator using Circle and head up.

Stahl Arms Warehouse

Go up the stairs and before entering the door, "cook" a grenade (hold R2) and then toss it down to where the Helghast are speaking to each other on the lower floor.

Take out the few Helghast that are left over. Once Garza runs into the middle of the warehouse, more Helghast will appear. Stay behind cover, because there are quite a few enemies here. Take them all out and enter the room at the far end where the Helghast have been coming out of.

You'll find some more ammo on an ammo rack in this room.

Exit this room and find the locked door. Garza will work on unlocking it while enemy Helghast flood into the warehouse. Once you kill them all, the door will open.

Enter the door and stick to the left and go to the back of this area and enter the small room. There will be one Helghast in here. Kill him and find the ammo rack, which will have an StA14 rifle on it. Pick it up, holding Square and look across the floodgate to the other side. There are two Helghast in the room which you can kill with the rifle or by shooting an explosive barrel in the room.

SYMBOL! To the right of the room and up a little, you'll find the first symbol.

Turn the valve by pressing circle, grab it with both hands using L1 and R1 and turn it left by tilting the controller just like you're turning the valve in real life.

Before leaving this room, grab an assault rife from the ammo rack. There will be some Helghast waiting for you. Kill them and follow Garza through the doorway.

Verdran Overlook East

INTEL! Continue down the hallway. When you turn left, the game will notify you that there is a intel case nearby. You'll find it right on top of the steps.

Turn the corner and Rico will yell for you to keep the Helghast off of them. They are in the alleyway below. You'll find the Helghast right up the next set of steps. Be careful here, there are a couple of Helghast with missile launchers. One of them is in the far back.

Take everyone out and go all the way to the back and to the right where the machine gun is at. Grab it and shoot any Helghast down in the alley attacking your team.

SYMBOL! Find Garza and he'll knock in a door. Go down the staircase and you'll see the symbol on the wall in front of you before you jump off the end of the staircase.

Storm Drain 11-34C

You'll come to a room with several columns and enemy Helghast hiding behind them. Kill all these guys and exit the room from the door in the back.

SYMBOL! To the right of the exit of this room, you'll see a chain link fence. The symbol is on the wall behind it.

Verdran Overlook West

Go up the stairs and grab the machine gun in the little room ahead of you. You'll have to attack enemy Helghast in the building across from you. Watch out, because several of them have missile launchers. The fastest way to do this is by destroying the building instead of killing the enemy. Shoot the two middle columns in the middle of each floor.

Now follow Garza to the next area. There are a few Helghast here and one hiding all the way to the left. When you kill them all, Garza will run into the room and kneel next to a fallen soldier. He'll uncover a missile launcher which you'll need to pick up and shoot at the large warehouse door that has the Helghast logo on it.

INTEL! Enter the warehouse and head to the back, where you'll find the intel case right beneath the staircase.

There is a Helghast waiting to shoot you in the room ahead so prepare to shoot once the doors open.Kill this guy and stock up on ammo.

Korovis Dam

Once you exit the room, you'll find the enemy shooting your ISA teamates on the ground below. Attack these guys and take cover. Across the bridge a Helghast has a missile launcher so try to take him out from a distance.

There is also an enemy on a machine gun in the small room shooting directly across the bridge. You can run up the bridge and take cover behind a barrel to kill him.Once you kill him, run to room before another Helghast mans the machine gun.

Continue along the catwalk and kill the Helghast on the top level of the second floor. It's easier to kill them from outside the room before running in or they'll shoot you from above. Take them out and then kill the Helghast on the lower floor of the room.

Go down the ladder and grab the missle launcher at the bottom. Two enemy tanks will enter through the gates in the back so you'll have to destroy them with the missile launcher. If you run out of missiles, there are more in the back where your teammates are taking cover.

After you kill the tanks, Rico will instruct you to enter the tank. You'll find it in the back near your squad. Enter the tank using Circle and get ready to attack two more enemy tanks entering the area from the same place the previous tanks entered.

When you hear Templar over your radio announce there is an artillery strike, exit your tank and take cover near your squad. The rockets will hit your tank, so you have to get out. Defend yourself against any Helghast on the ground until the level ends.
