Arrowhead Game Studios CEO Shams Jorjani has responded to feedback regarding the most recent update for Helldivers 2, titled "Escalation of Freedom." The Helldivers 2 update was not well-received by many fans in the community, leading to an influx of negative reviews on the game's Steam page.
Helldivers 2 is one of the most successful games of 2024, with over 450,000 concurrent Steam players logged in during its launch month in February. Although the overall player count has waned in recent months, thousands of players around the world continue to contribute to the Super Earth cause on a monthly basis.
