From the Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helldivers_2):
Helldivers 2 (stylised as Helldivers II) is a 2024 third-person shooter developed by Arrowhead Game Studios and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. The game is the sequel to Helldivers, a 2015 top-down shooter. It was released for PlayStation 5 and Windows on 8 February 2024. It received positive reviews from critics and sold approximately 1 million units in 3 days since release.
Unlike Helldivers, which is a top-down shooter, Helldivers 2 is a third-person shooter.[1] Similar to the first game, players are able to select Stratagems, which are air drops players can call, which include cluster bombs, sentry guns, shield generators or supply pods containing limited-use special weaponry.[2] Friendly fire is always on. The game's armor system is inspired by real firearms fired against armored targets.[3] There is multiplayer with up to four players.[1] It also provides a cross-play feature between PlayStation 5 and Windows players.[4] In the initial days of the release, gameplay involved human observers at the studio influencing gameplay in real time.[5]
On 3 December 2020, Arrowhead Game Studios revealed that they were working on a new project expected to be released on PlayStation 5. It was confirmed that the game would be a third-person shooter.[6]
On 13 September 2021, Helldivers 2 was mentioned in a GeForce Now leak.[7] The game was teased in a TikTok post showing Arrowhead's social media manager starting their workday, which is followed by a series of posts from fans demanding them to release the game.[8] On 18 August 2022, a 12 second clip of gameplay was leaked on Twitter, but was later removed.[9][10]
On 24 May 2023, Helldivers 2 was announced during the 2023 PlayStation Showcase, with a slated release of some time in 2023.[11] On 6 July 2023, a trailer showcasing gameplay was released.[3][2] On 30 July 2023, the game received a M rating by the ESRB for "blood and gore" and "intense violence".[12] On 14 September 2023, gameplay was shown in a PlayStation State of Play event. During the event, the game got an official release date set for 8 February 2024.[13] Pre-orders became available on 22 September 2023.[14]
Helldivers 2 received "generally favorable" reviews from critics, according to review aggregator website Metacritic.[15][16]
Aaron Bayne of Push Square called the game "a riotous affair, offering up best-in-class gunplay" and a "truly epic and often cinematic experience, mixed in with one of the best co-op gameplay romps currently available." However, he criticized the game for its matchmaking issues and crashes that have occurred when playing the game.[24]
On 11 February 2024, Arrowhead Games CEO Johan Pilestedt announced that the game had sold approximately 1 million units.[27] It became the biggest launch for any PlayStation published game on PC. Following its initial success, Arrowhead Studios announced it intended to increase the size of its studio and hire more developers to accelerate its post-launch content plans.[28][29]
