In a recent update, Arrowhead Game Studios has confirmed that there are no plans for a sequel, Helldivers 3. Instead, the studio will continue to focus on Helldivers 2, aiming to maintain and expand it much like the long-running MMO, RuneScape. Arrowhead's CEO, Shams Jorjani, stated that they envision Helldivers 2 as a "forever game," drawing inspiration from RuneScape's enduring success since its launch 25 years ago. The studio's commitment involves embracing player feedback and continuously introducing new features to enhance gameplay.

Interestingly, Helldivers 2 is the fastest-selling PlayStation Studios game to date, achieving 12 million copies sold within just 12 weeks. Recent updates, like the “Into the Unjust” content addition, exemplify Arrowhead's dedication to evolving the game and ensuring its longevity within the competitive gaming landscape.

Will there be a Helldivers 3?

No, Arrowhead Game Studios has confirmed that there are no current plans for Helldivers 3, as the focus will remain on supporting and expanding Helldivers 2 for an extended period.

Helldivers 2 launched with significant success and has become a pivotal title for PlayStation. This cooperative twin-stick shooter allows players to engage in strategic combat within a satirical galaxy filled with hostile alien races. Players work together to complete various missions while adhering to the game's unique mechanics, such as friendly fire, adding a layer of complexity to team coordination. With its focus on continued updates and community engagement, Helldivers 2 is poised to offer fresh content and experiences, keeping the player base engaged over the long term.
