Arrowhead Game Studios’Helldivers 2shares a lot of elements with the popularStar Warsfranchise. In the past, Arrowhead’s CCO, Johan Pilestedt, has shared a list of crossovers he would love to work on, but it will never happen as Pilestedt doesn’t want to “dilute the IP.“
Apart fromStar Wars, Pilestedt also mentioned franchises likeTerminator,Predator,Warhammer 40k, andBlade Runner, but unfortunately, these crossovers will never happen because Pilestedt believes it will take away the trueHelldivers 2experience from the game. The game has made a strong comeback but a lot of new content is required to maintain a steady active player count.

In a recent tweet, Pilestedt explained that these types of crossovers would “dilute the IP” and make the game a “not helldivers” experience.
Yeah, but these are just musings, if we were to do all of them, it would dilute the IP and make it a “not helldivers” experience.To add more to this conversation, here’s an extended list of IPs that I really would love to do a take on!– Aliens– Starship Troopers– Terminator…
Further in the thread, a player suggested that Arrowhead could create Warbonds inspired by these franchises instead of a direct collaboration. Pilestedt acknowledged the idea, stating that it is “a good point of view.“
