During the September 2023 State of Play, PlayStation revealed that Helldivers 2 has been delayed from October 2023 to February 8, 2024. The third-person co-op shooter is the sequel to Helldivers that originally released on PS3, PS4, and PlayStation Vita. We also got a new gameplay trailer that showed off the co-op mission-based gameplay of Helldivers 2.
Helldivers 2 is making the transition from top-down 2D to third-person 3D. In the video we see a group of four working together to fight a savage Bile Titan enemy, where communication is key. The scripted back-and-forth banter is always a bit corny to me. Let’s be real, no one actually talks like that in the gaming heat of battle.

Helldivers 2 will release on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam on February 8, 2024.
