A Helldivers 2 developer recently hinted at an upcoming crossover event, stating that the studio was ‘in the very early stages of something new.’
A Helldivers 2 developer has hinted that the game’s next crossover event is in the works, leaving players to wonder which universe could be the next one to collide with Super Earth. Over a year after its initial release, Helldivers 2 continues to add fresh content, and additional collaborations give players even more chances to spread freedom across the galaxy.
Helldivers 2 was released in February 2024. It quickly became one of the most popular co-op shooters of the year, selling over 12 million copies three months after its launch. Players fight alongside their squad to defend Super Earth from hostile alien factions and spread managed democracy throughout the galaxy. With the recent conclusion of the Meridia storyline in Helldivers 2, expectations for new content are high. Players are now looking forward to what comes next, with major threats looming over Super Earth and new enemies that might be lurking in the shadows.
A recent tease from a Helldivers 2 developer suggests that a new crossover event is on the way. When asked on Discord about future Helldivers 2 crossover events, developer Sephez stated that they were “in the very early stages of something new.” The developer hasn’t shared any additional details, leaving fans to wonder which gaming franchise could be coming to Helldivers 2. Some players believe the next Helldivers 2 crossover could be with Warhammer 40K following the leaked silhouette of a melee weapon that looks like the iconic Chainsword from the franchise. Arrowhead Game Studios hasn’t yet shared any official information regarding this next Helldivers 2 crossover.
Helldivers 2 Dev Teases New Crossover Event
This wouldn’t be the first crossover for Helldivers 2. The game previously teamed up with Killzone 2, bringing weapons and armor inspired by Sony’s FPS into space warfare. Players who wanted to collect all the new cosmetic elements introduced in the Helldivers 2 x Killzone 2 crossover event needed to spend a total of 1,975 Super Credits, or about $19.99 for the whole Killzone 2 set. While that amounts to the price players would normally pay for two Premium Warbonds, this crossover made Helldivers 2 players curious about which other universe could eventually collide with Super Earth’s intergalactic missions.
Besides these crossover events, Helldivers 2 has received multiple updates in recent weeks. The latest patch introduced balancing adjustments, bug fixes, and quality-of-life improvements, including the temporal removal of the new Helldivers 2 Terminid enemies. With this recent tease about an upcoming crossover event, Helldivers 2 players have even more reasons to keep on imposing freedom across the farest reaches of space.
