Following the success of Helldivers 2, which was released a year ago to overwhelmingly positive reviews, Arrowhead Studios is now developing the concept for their next game. Creative director Johan Pilestedt took to social media to share that he is working on a "high concept" for the upcoming project and invited fans to contribute their ideas. The community responded enthusiastically, suggesting concepts like a remake of the classic retro shooter Smash TV or projects inspired by Star Fox. Pilestedt revealed that Arrowhead had previously considered a Smash TV remake and also mentioned exploring a Star Fox-inspired "rail game" genre.
While Arrowhead is keeping the details of their new project under wraps, it's evident that the studio values community engagement and is actively listening to fan suggestions. The success of Helldivers 2, hailed as one of the standout games of 2024, sets a high bar for Arrowhead's next endeavor.
In other news, a recent update for Helldivers 2 has significantly boosted the player count on PS5. The "Omens of Tyranny" update was shadow-dropped during the 2024 Game Awards, and PS5 users have been enjoying the new content. This update has delighted players by introducing the long-awaited Illuminate enemy faction, along with the 4x4 Fast Recon Vehicle and new urban warfare maps. These additions have enhanced the gameplay experience, keeping the community engaged and excited.
Moreover, rumors of a Killzone crossover for Helldivers 2 have sparked further interest, positioning the cooperative shooter for potential success in 2025. With Arrowhead Studios continuing to innovate and listen to their community, the future looks bright for both their current and upcoming projects.
