Helldivers 2 Developer Teases Warhammer 40,000 Collaboration

The recent collaboration between the co-op shooter Helldivers 2 and the Killzone franchise has sparked intense discussions within the gaming community, particularly regarding the potential for future content collaborations with other renowned franchises, such as Warhammer 40,000. Speculation about a crossover with the Warhammer universe has been met with skepticism, with some believing that Games Workshop would never permit such a partnership.

However, Arrowhead Studios' head, Shams Jorjani, has addressed these concerns directly, stating, "I can say that GW would love a crossover, we're big fans of [Warhammer] 40k ourselves." This statement has been interpreted by Helldivers 2 enthusiasts as a strong hint towards a possible collaboration with Games Workshop.

The premium content for Helldivers 2 continues to focus on thoughtfully crafted themes, exemplified by the recent partnership with Killzone 2. Arrowhead Studios has made it clear that such crossovers will be infrequent and will only be pursued when they seamlessly integrate with and enhance the existing universe of the game.

As part of this collaboration, players have the opportunity to earn more Killzone-themed rewards through community challenges related to the Galactic War. These challenges not only enrich the gaming experience but also deepen the connection between the two franchises, offering fans a unique and engaging way to participate in the evolving narrative of Helldivers 2.
