Helldivers 2 Gets a Limited-Time Discount for PC, Now Includes a Free Steam Game As Well

ign.com:

If you've not yet caught on to the Helldivers 2 hype, we've got some good news: it's on sale. A $39.99 price tag is already pretty amazing for one of the best games of the year, but if you're looking for a cheeky little discount on PC, then here's the rub on the best Helldivers 2 deal today.

All you need to do is use code FANATICAL17 at Fanatical, bringing the game down to $33.19 for a limited time. It's not a gargantuan discount by any means, but for such a massive game, it's well worth shouting about. Before you ask, yes, this is a Steam code -- go spread some "managed democracy".

Plus, for those interested in the Super Citizen Edition, the code will also work bringing that down to just $49.80 instead of $59.99. This edition includes DP-53 Savior of the Free' Armour Set, Will of the People' Cape, MP-98 Knight' Weapon, Super Citizen Status, Stratagem Hero Ship Game, and Steeled Veterans' Premium Warbond. Not only that, but any purchase over $12 at Fanatical right now also includes a free Steam game of your choice in the Spring Sale -- result!

We saw a similar deal in February on the game at Green Man Gaming, but that promptly sold out, so it's good to see the game back in stock and available to buy with a new promo code. Green Man Gaming also had a notable deal for Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree recently, which has been incredibly popular with fans, albeit it's now out of stock (we're keeping an eye on it!).

Since launching in February, Helldivers 2 has been a huge surprise and a massive hit. It's topped the charts on Steam and reportedly sold around 3 million copies, and not only that, it's still growing. Circana executive director Mat Piscatella recently compared Helldivers 2 to a "rare and amazing bird," saying that Helldivers 2 sales have continued to rise in its third week on the market.
