The first-person shooter genre will morph into more than just a run-and-gun experience, according Guerrilla Games senior producer Steven Ter Heide.

Speaking with GamesIndustry.biz, Heide said he sees the first-person shooter genre "becoming broader." Instead of simply allowing gamers to work their way through missions through the same basic gameplay, he sees the market segment becoming more of an "action" genre in which the titles borrow concepts from other parts of the game industry to deliver more full-featured play.

"It'll expand, start borrowing things from other genres, like Borderlands did by bringing RPG [role-playing game] elements into it, more open-world elements," Heide told GamesIndustry.biz. "Rage is another example--incorporating a lot of vehicle gameplay."
