On February 10th ISA Ultimate Recruit training opens – a hands on, interactive bootcamp to help you prepare for the launch of Killzone 3 and really get to know your enemy.

Recruits will take instructions from a ferocious ISA Marine, Instructor McCain.

First up is theory – over the course of training you will hone your intelligence gathering skills in order to locate and track Helghast activity.

Initially you need to locate the enemy by collecting the hidden Helghast symbols. Then you need to complete four training simulations using the internet, your phone and, most importantly, your wits.

The top 500 recruits to make the grade will win a place on the Live Fire Range, where they will have the chance to fire a real Helghast weapon over the internet.

The cream of the crop will be in with the chance to go to E3 in Los Angeles.

Enrol now at ultimaterecruit.killzone.com now and enter your details to be notified when recruitment opens.

ISA Ultimate Recruit – will you make the grade?

Please note: recruits must be 18 or over. The Live Fire and E3 Prize is only open to UK residents.
