Helldivers 2has seen some better days but the recent controversy regarding the linking of PlayStation Network accounts to Steam sent a bad message. Fortunately, the situation was resolved quickly but some fans are suggesting a shift in platform could make it better.
Sony owns the IP but Arrowhead Game Studios is an independent game developer and made games across different platforms. Perhaps Microsoft will extend an invitation and give these developers the proper tools and support to make a new one for the Xbox community.
Helldivers 2 Developers Could Make a Sequel or Spinoff for Xbox
Both PC and PlayStation users were graced with Arrowhead Game Studios’ latest project and it was a welcome surprise. It is currently the best-selling game of the year despite all the controversies and it already has a strong player base and receives constant support from the developers. Sony gate kept the game from the one platform that is into these sorts of games which forcedthe rival community to bite the bullet and grab a PS5just to dive in.

This recent shake-up has put the relationship between Sony and the developers to the test and may lead to them seeking out other partners for future projects. Microsoft was on an acquisition spree and took in studios that could help improve its library of games, perhaps there is now a small window of opportunity whileSony still refuses to share the gamewith the competition.

The video game was a strong asset for Sony and Microsoft could use one for itself to get back in the console wars. It was a system seller and many players picked up a PS5 just for the sole purpose of enlisting and joining the fight in the Galactic War. Arrowhead Studios could come up with a new franchise and take the success of this game and make it better on a much grander scale.
Xbox Could Be the new Home of the Helldivers 2 Successor
Despite reversing the initial decision to integrate both Steam and PlayStation Network accounts, the damage has already been done. The gaming community is now in the middle of a restoration effort to undo allthe negative reviews postedto apply pressure and gain the publisher’s attention.

Sony demonstrated a severe lack of empathy and concern for its customers when it abruptlypulled the video game from 177 countries that did not have its proprietary network. This action left players stranded and unsupported, without any assistance or guidance from the company. It’s a clear example of a corporation putting its interests above those of its loyal customers.
The worst part is that Arrowhead Game Studios took the fall and the publishers did not even respond or react until it saw the negative impact. Microsoft can now make some moves and recruit these mistreated developers and give them the support to face public backlash.
