Following the successful collaboration between the co-op shooter Helldivers 2 and the Killzone franchise, the gaming community has been buzzing with speculation about a potential crossover with another iconic franchise, Warhammer 40,000. Fans are eagerly discussing the possibility of such a partnership, which could bring exciting new content to the game.
However, some have expressed doubts about the feasibility of a collaboration with Warhammer 40,000, citing concerns that Games Workshop, the company behind the Warhammer universe, might not be open to such a crossover. Addressing these concerns, Shams Jorjani, the head of Arrowhead Studios, stated, "I can say that GW would love a crossover, we're big fans of [Warhammer] 40k ourselves." This comment has been interpreted by Helldivers 2 enthusiasts as a strong hint that a collaboration with Games Workshop could be on the horizon.
The premium content for Helldivers 2 has been carefully curated, with the Killzone 2 partnership serving as a prime example of the thoughtful approach taken by the developers. Arrowhead Studios has emphasized that such crossovers will be rare and will only be pursued when they align seamlessly with the game's universe, ensuring that any new content feels like a natural extension of the Helldivers 2 experience.
As part of this partnership, players have the opportunity to earn more Killzone-themed rewards through community challenges related to the Galactic War. This initiative not only enhances the gameplay but also fosters a sense of community and engagement among the Helldivers 2 fanbase.
