A co-op TPP shooter and the second installment in a series originating from 2015. Helldivers 2 has us play as the titular soldiers, defending their planet - Super Earth - from extraterrestials.
Helldivers 2 is a co-op shooter and a sequel to the warmly received Helldivers from 2015. It was developed by the same team as the original, Arrowhead Game Studios.
Helldivers 2 is set in a sci-fi universe. We play as the titular soldiers defending their planet - Super Earth - from extraterrestials. Their task is to fight Terminids, Automatons and spread the ideals of freedom, peace and democracy throughout the entire hostile galaxy.
Unlike the previous game, Helldivers 2 makes use of the third-person perspective (TPP). The gameplay revolves around eliminating hordes of enemies. Players can wield many different weapons, such as pistols, machine guns and flamethrowers. We also have some deadlier tools at our disposal, such as air drops of anti-personnel mines, automatic turrets or powerful bombs that can tip the scales in our favour. We can also use defensive equipment, such as shield generators.
Since there are plenty of ways to dispatch enemies, it's worth taking a moment to customize our soldier's gear to suit our current needs and playstyle before each battle. As we progress, we unlock various upgrades that make us even more effective at killing.
Helldivers 2 was created with online multiplayer in mind, ing co-op for four people at once. We must also watch out for friendly fire; we must stay in with our teammates and coordinate our actions to avoid it.
The visuals Helldivers 2 are very appealing. The battlefields are varied while the enemy models are very detailed.

Hardcore Gamer: 4 / 5 by Kevin Dunsmore
Launching a live service game in today’s environment is a risky proposition. Not only are the market leaders incredibly entrenched, but launching a brand new one without a satisfying gameplay loop, content variety and character could doom a game right out of the gate. Helldivers II bucks the trends with highly satisfying gameplay, a good variety of planets to explore and objectives to complete, unique hooks and hilarious improvised moments. Gunplay is punchy, smart and requires some thought to be effective, though it can also just be chaotic fun. Unique hooks like the Galactic War where you’re just another cog in the war effort rather than the “Chosen One” adds more stakes to every match. It’s also fun to hop into a match with friends and unleash all forms of chaos. It’s not perfect with Helldivers II unable to escape every Live Service pitfall. Progression feels unnecessarily padded with multiple currencies to juggle, the fun factor doesn’t extend to playing solo and technical issues plague the post-launch week. Still, Helldivers II delivers where it matters and leaves us excited to see what Arrowhead can bring to the game next rather than leaving us pondering if the game can be saved. Helldivers II is one galactic conflict players can happily dive into.
