Helldivers 2took the world by storm and was a phenomenal success for both Arrowhead Game Studios CEO Johan Pilestedt and Sony Interactive Entertainment. It is rare to see Sony take a different route and publish a multiplayer title that can run on its console and PC, despite being best known for its first-party single-player games.Helldivers 2carries the PlayStation Studios seal of high-quality gameplay and commitment to the community.
Johan Pilestedt, the CEO of the company that developed the live-service game, promises that it will continue to receive free updates for content and patches. This is unlike many other developers and publishers who charge players for items on their battle passes. Pilestedt’s strategy is commendable and should serve as an example for others to follow.

The success ofHelldivers 2will open doors for more developers to join the team and give them opportunities to be as creative as possible. Plans for introducing new weapons and locations for players to shed blood and fight for democracy are already in place.
Johan Pilestedt’s Vision for Helldivers 2 and Beyond
The increase in player count has given the developers the confidence to reach new heights, stabilizing their servers to accommodate existing players, and with their current achievement being incredible already in itself, the original vision will be manifested through future content and encourages them to go further.

Despite running on an antiquated engine, the developers are optimistic that they can achieve their roadmap in the coming days; perhaps the game will be able to last years with proper content updates that don’t upset fans. The hardest part for live-service games is coming up with strategies on how to remain relevant, a problem that the likes ofCall of DutyandFortnitedo not have because of constant collaborations.
In addition to gameplay content, these collaborations welcome the use of online currency for cosmetics, which Pilestedt is keen on avoiding for his title.
Helldivers 2is a triumph for Arrowhead Game Studios and Sony Interactive Entertainment, giving them the confidence to work hard on the future of this franchise to gain momentum and longevity.
