It's been just under a month since Helldivers 2 released on PS5 and PC. The co-op shooter obviously made a huge splash right out of the gate, and positive word of mouth actually saw sales increase post-launch, which is a rarity. But as we all know, interest in live service games can be a fickle thing. We've seen countless titles over the last few years have their 15 minutes of fame before falling off a cliff — and so we want to know if you're still blasting bugs.
Of course, it's still far too early to be questioning the longevity of Helldivers 2 — but we think it'll be interesting to get some kind of perspective on how the game's holding up with the hardcore crowd (that's you, the people who read this website).
When we did a typical 'Are You Playing' poll for Helldivers 2 at launch, 41% of readers (across 1,830 votes) said they were in, with a further 20% saying they were planning on playing it, just not so soon. What's more, the title's got a very respectable user rating of 8.4 in our games database, so it's clearly been well received.

I try to play 2-3 matches a night, but there's too many single player games keeping me occupied like FF7 ReBirth, Granblue Fantasy Relink and Trails of Cold Steel 3.
How else would I be spreading democracy?
Helldivers 2 has completely ended my play time of Fortnite this season. And it is also SEVERELY reducing my progress in Cyberpunk.
But I'm not that mad. It is FANTASTIC with a group of buddies.
I'm not sure if this helps, but I walked past my neighbour's house and he was playing it on his flatscreen while his partner was looking bored.
Personally, I don't own the game.
