Helldivers 2 Developer Teases Warhammer 40,000 Collaboration

The collaboration between the co-op shooter Helldivers 2 and the Killzone franchise has sparked intense discussions within the gaming community about the potential for future crossovers, particularly with the renowned Warhammer 40,000 universe. Speculation about such a collaboration has been fueled by comments from Arrowhead Studios head, Shams Jorjani, who expressed enthusiasm about the possibility. Jorjani stated, "I can say that GW would love a crossover, we're big fans of [Warhammer] 40k ourselves." These remarks have been interpreted by Helldivers 2 fans as a strong hint that a collaboration with Games Workshop might be on the horizon.

Currently, the premium content for Helldivers 2 is focused on thoughtfully curated themes, exemplified by the recent partnership with Killzone 2. The developers have made it clear that such crossovers will be rare and will only be considered when they seamlessly integrate with the game's existing universe. This approach ensures that any new content added through collaborations enhances the player experience without disrupting the game's core narrative and aesthetic.

As part of the ongoing partnership with Killzone, players have the opportunity to earn themed rewards through community challenges related to the Galactic War. This initiative not only enriches the gameplay but also fosters a sense of community and competition among players, making the Helldivers 2 experience even more engaging.
