Love seeing Helldivers 2 embrace its playful side with the Killzone crossover It's a great way to keep the game fresh and engaging, though pricing on those new items might need some tweaking to keep the community happy.

This crossover between Helldivers 2 and Killzone not only brings some fresh gear to the game but also shows the potential for exciting collaborations in the future. I get the pricing concerns, but if Arrowhead can keep delivering quality content that feels meaningful, I'm all for it

It’s awesome to see Helldivers 2 leaning into crossovers with a classic like Killzone; that AC-1 armor set is definitely going to add some flair to the battlefield I get that price concerns come up, but hopefully, Arrowhead finds a balance that keeps the fun without straining players' wallets.
