According to an interview with the Official PlayStation Magazine UK, Killzone: Shadow Fall's director--Guerilla Games' Steven ter Heide--has said that the game will explain more about the Helghast mythology than in any previous game.

“We were able to do more characters, to up the fidelity and all that, to really play with those elements and say what can we do? What can we take from that background to make an interesting setting. So that’s why we introduce a new conflict and a new situation," ter Heide said. “Everyone was always talking about what the Helghast are like, what the world is like, the cultural and social aspects.”
