Killzone 2 out on 27th Feb - retailers

Sony yet to confirm.

Killzone 2 will almost certainly be released in the UK on 27th February, with certain European territories getting their hands on it two days earlier on the 25th.

Sony UK told Eurogamer this afternoon that it could not confirm the release date, but we've since spoken to UK retailers who have been advised to expect a 27th February launch for the PS3 exclusive.

Earlier this week Sony also said that European gamers can probably expect a playable demo prior to release.

As far as we're concerned it can't come soon enough, having quickened our pulse already this month in yesterday's Killzone 2 hands-on preview. Reviews are expected to hit within the weeks beforehand, including ours.
