Helldivers 2may be the perfect live-service title for many, but it’s certainly not immune to competition. As we wait for the arrival ofWarhammer 40k: Space Marine 2, fans are beginning to worry about Arrowhead’s game.
A player has pointed out howHelldivers 2may be approaching its demise given the current state of the game and how the arrival of a highly anticipated title may kill the game’s future.
Similar Premise, Different Universes
There’s an ongoing threat in the universe, and only humanity’s best and bravest can keep the peace. All of this is for the betterment of the future. And just like that, you have the narrative for two of the most popular franchises in gaming right now.

Whether it’sWarhammer 40k: Space Marine 2orHelldivers 2, these games have much in common. However, this isn’t just the nicest though, because this could mean a lot of dangerous things forHelldivers 2.
Player WildCinder on Reddit has pointed out how the upcoming game can mess up things for Arrowhead’s live-service title. In its current state,Helldivers 2isn’t showing much promise, and players have little to work towards.
Combine this sense of boredom with the anticipation for a game that can possibly replace this experience, and you have the recipe for a popular game’s failure.
The player writes about how the upcomingWarhammer 40kgame builds on the promise and fantasy of Arrowhead’s original idea, but might just do it better. Fortunately (or unfortunately, for some), this holds true as most of the gameplay we’ve seen so far makesSpace Marine 2stand out as a unique sci-fi shooter.
How Can Helldivers 2 Stay Relevant?
Game modes, better Warbonds, PvP, newer weapons and enemy types? The list can go on. Take one small look into the game’s subreddit and you’ll find endless ideas and theories for what the game can be.

On that note, Arrowhead’s creative leadJohan Pilestedt is super excited about the upcoming game. Does this mean anything forHelldivers 2? Only time will tell. It won’t be surprising to see a collab or references to the other franchise, but the game can certainly borrow ideas that might keep players’ interest.
The truth is that co-op is just a part of the upcomingWarhammer 40kgame, whileHelldivers 2completely relies on it. This gives Arrowhead a tight space to explore its game design possibilities, whilst working hard to keep base game mechanics in place and balance updates constant.
If there’s something new or refreshing you’d like to see in the game, what would it be? Do you think Arrowhead can keep the game enjoyable in the long-run? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
