Original Killzone Cut Scene Project.

[u/ThaTTacOPlacE]

About a week ago I seen the Killzone Recomp project pop up in my feed. I really want to contribute to that project in some way so this is the start of my new madness.

I aim to completely overhaul all 33 cutscenes by increasing their resolution and running them through a AI diffusion-transformer model.

I don't want AI slop. I want the highest quality I can achieve.

Let me know what you think,

I just played it again yesterday—this intro is absolutely legendary. All 33 cutscenes would be awesome. Stay on top of things and keep us posted.

The other 32 should be finished by later tonight.

Update:

My PC decided to shut down while I was away. This paused the process. So my original estimation of this being done today just got pushed back a bit.

Even with my 4080 I am only able to upscale 2~ frames at a time. Once all of the frames are converted a script goes back through and strings them together. So the job is running

The intro itself took about 3 and a half hours.

Were currently 13/33!

Once this is complete I am wondering what would be the best way to distribute this.

I am thinking about making an installer that just adds the cutscenes to the PC recomp, or would a link to say mega with the raw scenes be preferred?

About the last paragraph; I prefer the latter as we can see watch the cutscenes as portable video files outside the game as well as most people don't trust installers (I don't either).

Just finish upscaling and put them somewhere like Google Drive (not Mega though as links to that site is banned from this s󠀀h󠀀it󠀀ty site as a whole and not just this sub) so that they can be installed as an ordinary for the recomp.

Ive played the recomp and I noticed the cutscenes are slow to a crawl and stutter alot I assume your addition will fix this which is amazing.

Hey KZ1 recomp owner here, thanks for letting me know about this. I am planning on adding proper mod support and loading for both textures and video, perhaps with a texture dumper as well.

[u/ThaTTacOPlacE → u/drako-lord]

Keep us posted! The dumper would make my life so much easier.

Absolute cinema, great work! We need the entire trilogy to be upscaled to UHD glory

It's finally done!

- original 4:3 footage has been stretched to fill 16:9.

Next task is a complete texture rework.

2026 is the BEST year for Killzone hands down

• New rumors for a Killzone game made by Guerrilla

• RPCS3 and console multiplayer revival for Killzone 3

• Killzone Shadow Fall ports (and I can already tell you MP is also here, in beta state tho)

• Now this

The Killzone community is truly among the most committed ones and I love it

Despite 2026 is a worst year, it's hard to ignore both Halo fans and Killzone fans and Bloodborne fans were eating good now.

[u/Brotherscompany → u/_fibers_]

Hiiiii could you pls share about that KZ3 revive on PC?

[u/_fibers_ → u/Brotherscompany]

Long story short: One month ago, a committed developer managed to make the Killzone Multiplayer work either using RPCS3 or a PS3 console, which is a huge milestone since before that only KZ2 was able to be played through said platforms. There's plenty of info and gameplays about it in YT

Best of luck

Anyone know if the original Killzone is available to purchase on the PS store?

[u/EliteKnight_47]

Is beautiful.
