Following the success of Helldivers 2, Arrowhead Studios has hinted at a new game

Arrowhead Studios, fresh off the overwhelmingly positive reception to Helldivers 2 (released just a year ago), is now developing a high-concept game. Creative director Johan Pilestedt took to social media, announcing the project and inviting fan input. Suggestions ranged from a Smash TV remake to a Star Fox-inspired title. Pilestedt confirmed that a Smash TV remake had been internally considered, and also mentioned exploring a Star Fox-esque concept within the "rail game" genre.

While details remain scarce, Arrowhead's engagement with the community is evident. The success of Helldivers 2, a standout title of 2024, sets a high benchmark for their next endeavor.

A recent update significantly boosted Helldivers 2's player count on PS5. The "Omens of Tyranny" update, shadow-dropped at the 2024 Game Awards, introduced the long-awaited Illuminate enemy faction, a 4x4 Fast Recon Vehicle, and new urban warfare maps, delighting players. With a rumored Killzone crossover on the horizon, Helldivers 2 appears poised for continued success in 2025.
