Helldivers 2 Update 1.000.008

It’s been almost a decade since Helldivers first dropped into our atmosphere, and we’ve finally learned when we can expect the sequel. The Helldivers 2 release date was announced to be February 8, 2024 in today’s State of Play.

We also got a new Helldivers 2 gameplay trailer, which you can view here:

The gameplay shows an intense 4-player co-op mission against a gigantic bile-spitting arachnid. It’s as full of explosions, violence, and death as you might imagine.

All in all, the shift to a third person perspective looks to be treating the game well. Being right down in the action gets the player much more immersed in what’s happening on-screen. It feels slightly reminiscent of an Earth Defense Force game, though hopefully it’s a little less clunky.

Sony also announced that pre-orders for the game will be open starting on September 22.

Helldivers 2 will be available on PC and PS5 on February 8, 2024.
