This momentous announcement means a significant expansion for Super Earth’s forces. Originally launched on PS5 and PC earlier in 2024, Helldivers 2 quickly became a global phenomenon, celebrated for its chaotic co-op action, satirical tone, and dynamic Galactic War metagame.
Mikael Eriksson, Game Director at Arrowhead Game Studios, expressed the team’s excitement: “We know gamers have been asking for this for some time and we are so excited to bring more Helldivers into our game. We have so much more in store for the future months and years – and the more players we have the more stories we can tell! The fight for Super Earth has only just begun.”
With the addition of Xbox players, the developers at Arrowhead anticipate an even more dynamic and engaging “Galactic War,” where the collective efforts of millions will dictate the future of Super Earth.
Xbox players can pre-order Helldivers 2 now to secure their enlistment and prepare for deployment on August 26, 2025. Get ready to give ’em hell!
