New Report Suggests Helldivers 2 Xbox Release Unlikely

As one of the most popular online games lately, it’s no surprise that Xbox fans were hoping for a chance to play Helldivers 2. Developer Arrowhead Studios even hinted at a possible version for Xbox, mentioning some simple conditions that could make it happen.

Sony’s Approval Holds the Key to Xbox Release

Arrowhead Studios has said they’re ready to develop an Xbox version and are open to the idea. However, the main hurdle is getting official approval from Sony and reaching a fair deal with Microsoft. Both companies would need to agree to make the Xbox version possible.

But it appears talks have stalled, with no agreement reached. Industry insider Shpeshal Nick recently shared disappointing news, saying his sources confirm the Xbox version of Helldivers 2 won’t be happening.

Nick explained on the XboxEra podcast that new information suggests any hope for an Xbox version has been canceled, even though earlier hints seemed more positive. One key detail is still missing: the reason behind the cancellation. Whether it’s due to Sony’s lack of approval or a failed deal with Microsoft, we still don’t know the full story.

Interestingly, this news might actually work in favor of the developers for now. Helldivers 2 has faced some recent criticism due to technical issues, weapon balancing problems, and a requirement for PC players to log in with a PlayStation account. Expanding to Xbox could have added to these issues, potentially impacting the game’s quality across all platforms.
