Helldivers 2 is sticking to PvE to avoid toxicity: ‘If you want PvP play Tarkov’
Helldivers 2 has become a smash hit, and while fans should be excited about what’s to come, the developers have made it clear that players shouldn’t expect a PvP mode any time soon.
In an exchange with users on Twitter/X, Arrowhead CEO Johan Pilestedt tried to downplay a comparison to Call of Duty, which was in response to a post that showed Helldivers 2 currently boasting a superior player count on Steam than the FPS juggernaut. Pilestedt attempted to veer users away from considering the game a “CoD killer” and instead promised to “build Helldivers 2 into a long lasting and successful game and a beloved IP,” but not overnight.
