Arrowhead Studios, fresh off the resounding success of Helldivers 2 (released last year to critical acclaim), is currently developing a "high-concept" game. Creative director Johan Pilestedt took to social media to announce the project and solicit fan input.

Community suggestions ranged from a Smash TV remake to Star Fox-inspired titles. Pilestedt confirmed prior internal consideration of a Smash TV remake and hinted at a Star Fox-esque project within the "rail game" genre.

While details remain scarce, Arrowhead's active community engagement is evident. Helldivers 2's stellar performance in 2024, being one of the year's standout titles, sets a high benchmark for their next venture.

A recent update for Helldivers 2, including the long-awaited Illuminate enemy faction, the 4x4 Fast Recon Vehicle, and new urban warfare maps, has significantly boosted player numbers on PS5. The update, a surprise release at the 2024 Game Awards, has been well-received.

This update has undoubtedly delighted Helldivers 2 players. Coupled with rumors of a Killzone crossover, the game appears poised for continued success in 2025.
