For democracy
We're on the verge of launch day for Helldivers 2, the sci-fi co-op shooter hitting PS5 and PC this week.

For Super Earth
Helldivers 2 is only a couple of days away at the time of writing, and it's looking more and more promising the closer we get.

And you can't turn it off
While bringing the camera close to your character is one of the biggest changes Helldivers 2 makes from the original, a feature that remains very much the same is friendly fire. If a teammate steps in the path of your own bullet barrage or laser beam, or is caught up in a missile strike, they'll sustain damage and could...
News Third-Person View Makes Helldivers 2 More Immersive, Better Game Feel
Original game still has its place
Probably the biggest change Helldivers 2 makes compared to the PS4 original is its camera perspective.

Speaking to assistant game director Sagar...

However, Arrowhead Studios is not simply producing fixed content drops it can plan for months down the line; rather, it sees itself as a D&D game...

One of the rare games bearing the PS Studios emblem this year is Helldivers 2, and it's just around the corner on PS5.

About The Game
Enlist in the Helldivers and join the fight for freedom across a hostile galaxy in a fast, frantic, and ferocious third-person shooter.
URGENT BROADCAST – SUPER EARTH ARMED FORCES
Freedom. Peace. Democracy.
Your Super Earth-born rights. The key pillars of our civilization.
Of our very existence.
But the war rages on. And everything is once again under threat.
Join the greatest military force the galaxy has ever seen and make this a safe and free place to live.
BECOME A LEGEND
You will be assembled into squads of up to four Helldivers and assigned strategic missions.
Watch each other’s back – friendly fire is an unfortunate certainty of war, but victory without teamwork is impossible.
LOADOUTS
Rain down freedom from above, sneak through enemy territory, or grit your teeth and charge head-first into the jaws of combat.
How you deliver liberty is your choice; you’ll have access to a wide array of explosive firepower, life-saving armor and battle-changing stratagems… the jewel in every Helldiver’s arsenal.
REQUISITION
Super Earth recognises your hard work with valuable Requisition. Use it to access different rewards that benefit you, your squad, your destroyer ship and our overall war effort.
THREATS
Everything on every planet wants you dead. That’s what we’re dealing with.
Each enemy has distinct and unpredictable characteristics, tactics, and behavior – but they all fight ferociously and without fear or morality.
THE GALACTIC WAR
Capturing enemy planets, defending against invasions, and completing missions will contribute to our overall effort.
This war will be won or lost depending on the actions of everyone involved.
We stand together, or we fall apart.
TACTICAL WARFARE
- Adaptive triggers: Discover recoil, rate of fire and the weight of each weapon.
- Haptic feedback: Feel alien worlds come to life with environmental, equipment and weather effects.
- Built-in microphone: Swap tactics with your comrades in the chaos of combat.
- PS5® Tempest 3D AudioTech: Pinpoint approaching enemies, nearby battles, and distant screams from any direction.
