    Does Helldivers 2 have multiplayer? While co-op gameplay has always been part of the original Helldivers title, it’s been nearly a decade since Arrowhead Game Studios made a sequel. This puts players’s curiosity at its peak based on what multiplayer features are easily accessible. In case you’re new to the series and would like to get a general idea of what co-op options are there, here’s everything we know so far about Helldivers 2 multiplayer.

    Does Helldivers 2 have multiplayer?

    Yes, Helldivers 2 has multiplayer. The Helldivers 2 multiplayer features include quickplay matchmaking, where you get automatically teamed up into a public lobby with random players. When you go to the War Table menu and choose a planet and difficulty, you’ll see the prompt to quickplay.

    On the other hand, you may just create your very own Helldivers 2 lobby and invite your friends or allow anyone to join. For this to work, just head over to Settings, select Options, and then toggle your Matchmaking Policy to Public.

    Helldivers 2 previously had matchmaking issues, and players started creating workarounds like turning off crossplay and leaving behind SOS beacons while quitting missions to quickly squad up. However, the game’s recent update 01.000.006 included a hotfix for “improved matchmaking experience and likelihood of success,”  so there’s pretty much less to worry about if you want to enjoy multiplayer co-op with friends.

    Now that you know that Helldivers 2 has multiplayer, you can satisfy your curiosity as we’ve got answers regarding Helldivers 2’s availability on Xbox Game Pass, and whether it has crossplay or split-screen support.
