The highly anticipated sequel to the 2015 squad-based shooter Helldivers is out at last: Helldivers 2. There may have been a lengthy time between these games, but developer Arrowhead Game Studios wasn’t idle; the sequel is drastically different in tone and scope from its predecessor.
Helldivers 2 is an ambitious and, one can only hope, immersive extension of its predecessor, which focused on cooperative shooter gameplay from a top-down perspective.
If you’re looking for a long single-player experience, you might want to look elsewhere; Helldivers 2’s basic solo mode appears to be just as much of an afterthought as its predecessor. Coordination of load-outs and deliberate decision-making in combat are two aspects of team-based decision-making that are critical to surviving its stages and mastering its challenges.
With every second counting, there’s little time to pause and enjoy the surroundings, yet a broad assortment of locales offers a variety of intriguing encounters with aggressive alien animals.
Helldivers 2 Release Date
On February 8, 2024, about nine years following the first game’s March 2015 premiere, Helldivers 2 will be available. Similar to its predecessor, Helldivers will only be available on PlayStation consoles; this time around, it will be exclusive to the PS5.
Sony Interactive Entertainment has published both games developed by independent studio Arrowhead Game Studios, thus it stands to reason that they are capitalizing on the fact that this is one of the few big PlayStation exclusives set to arrive in 2024.
The first confirmed release date for Helldivers 2 was February 8, 2024, which is still in effect today; however, the exact year of release was never specified.
The most current PlayStation Blog update confirms February 8 as the release date, putting an end to any concerns that may have been raised by a PlayStation trailer from Sony’s CES 2024 press conference that mentioned February 28 availability.
The PC version of the game will also be released on this date, and upon launch, crossplay will be accessible so that friends can play on both systems. Helldivers 2’s minimum system requirements for PC include a graphics card with at least Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 TI or AMD Radeon RX 470 support, as well as a processor with at least Intel Core i7-4790K or AMD Ryzen 5 1500X.
Very High graphics in 4K require an RTX 4070 TI or RX 7900 XTX and an i5-12600K or Ryzen 7 5800X3D while hitting recommended settings increases the system requirements to a GTX 2060 or RX 6600 XT with an i7-9700K or Ryzen 7 3700X. All systems require 100 GB of storage, and while a 7200 rpm HDD will do for minimal settings, an SSD is highly recommended for everything beyond.
With a starting pricing of $39.99 for pre-orders on both platforms, Helldivers 2 isn’t trying to compete head-on with AAA titles that cost 70 dollars.
Although it costs $59.99, the Super Citizen Edition adds a plethora of extras like a “Premium Warbond” that appears to be a combat pass, more mini-games that can be accessible on the ship, and more customization options and gear. All editions of Helldivers 2 feature the three armour sets that are available for pre-order.
Helldivers 2’s Story and Location
The story of Helldivers 2 isn’t very good; in fact, most of the story parts are there just to set the stage for the gameplay. Any methods required must be employed to eliminate the alien invaders, as they constitute a danger to Super Earth.
Helldivers 2 doesn’t put much emphasis on characters since the spaces in a squad are designed to be filled by human colleagues instead of AI. The Helldivers are an elite force with this fundamental goal.
Helldivers 2’s comedic touches are its bread and butter, implying that the Helldivers’ ideals aren’t quite as admirable as they seem. As the people of Super Earth are incited to aggressively stand up for Managed Democracy, the atmosphere is tinged with a hint of Starship Troopers.
Since the Helldivers’ mission as peacekeepers requires them to wipe out any and all threats to the cosmos, it’s hardly surprising that they have access to an armory of superpowers.
