Sony has disclosed additional details about the PC version of Helldivers 2, the upcoming cooperative multiplayer shooter from Arrowhead Game Studios. Set to release in early February 2024 for both PC and PS5, the game, known for its chaotic co-op gameplay and sci-fi satire, initially gained popularity as a multiplayer classic on the PS4 in 2015.

Helldivers 2, inspired by films like Starship Troopers and Aliens, introduces a significant change from its predecessor, transitioning from a top-down “twin-stick” arcade shooter to a third-person perspective. Originally slated for a 2023 release, the game’s launch date was adjusted to February 8, 2024. In a recent PlayStation Blog post, Arrowhead outlined the PC system requirements and confirmed a major multiplayer feature: crossplay.

Cross-platform play has become a crucial element in multiplayer games, widening the player base by allowing individuals on different platforms to play together. Helldivers 2 embraces this trend, supporting cross-platform play between players on PS5 and PC. The game’s PC requirements are categorized into four performance-based specs: Minimum, Recommended, Performance, and Ultra. Despite being perceived by some as a “PlayStation exclusive,” the simultaneous release on PC and PS5, coupled with cross-play support, establishes Helldivers 2 as a true multi-platform title.

Highlighting the significance of teamwork in Helldivers 2, the modest PC specs outlined by Arrowhead ensure accessibility for players with a wide range of machines, making the cooperative chaos and dark comedy of the Helldivers universe available to a broad audience.

The Helldivers universe portrays soldiers dropping from orbit to combat swarms of aliens and cyborgs, aiming to spread “Managed Democracy” across the universe. The game’s portrayal of “Super Earth” as an authoritarian regime adds a sinister undertone to the slapstick antics of soldiers inadvertently causing chaos with drop pods and explosives.

Helldivers 2 marks a notable shift for developer Arrowhead Game Studios, being their first release since the original Helldivers and their initial foray into the third-person shooter genre. Renowned for quirky titles operating on a 2D plane, such as Magicka, Arrowhead’s venture into a more mainstream project with a wider appeal showcases their adaptability. If successful in merging their unique tone and atmosphere with the competitive landscape of multiplayer shooters, Helldivers 2 may witness a surge in popularity upon its launch.
