Helldivers 2 has been a bit of a surprise hit for Sony and developer Arrowhead Studios. The game's landed with a genuine bang, pulling a huge number of players across PS5 and PC since its launch last week. The general consensus is that — outside of connection issues — it's a damn good time, especially if you can coax a few friends to join you in blasting overgrown bugs.
Enthusiasm for the mission-based shooter shines through in our Helldivers 2 PS5 review. Awarding the game an 'excellent' 9/10, we wrote: «Helldivers 2 is a riotous affair, offering up best-in-class gunplay, a truly epic and often cinematic experience, mixed in with one of the best co-op gameplay romps currently available.» We concluded: «Helldivers 2 is a hell of a lot of fun, and is the best laugh you and your mates will have on PS5.»
