Helldivers 2 Will “Probably” Add Cross-Progression

4.3
The level of success that Helldivers 2 is enjoying has been as surprising for us to see as it has been for the people who made it, and given how popular the shooter has proven, it’s no surprise that developer Arrowhead Game Studios is pivoting to much more ambitious post-launch plans. An entirely new roadmap is in the works, with free new content like enemies, biomes, objectives, and story updates having been previously promised.

On top of that, as you may have guessed, you can also probably expect some smaller scale but no less crucial updates in terms of new features- like cross-saves and cross-progression (but certainly not PvP). Upon being asked on Twitter about whether Helldivers 2 will be adding cross-play, Arrowhead Game Studios CEO Johan Pilestedt said that though that wasn’t originally the plan, given the massive and unexpected influx of players, a “significant” portion of it wants cross-progression, it’s likely that the feature eventually ends up being added to the game.

“There will probably be cross progression sometime in the future,” he wrote. “We didn’t think enough people would be interested so we decided to cut it – but now it seems there’s a significant part of the audience that is playing on both platforms.”


That said, Pilestedt has also said that this is by no means a promise or a guarantee- but if nothing else, it’s a feature that Arrowhead Game Studios is aware is wanted by a large number of players in the community, so hopefully it won’t be long before it ends up being added.
