Helldivers 2 maintains the core concept of the original game while drastically changing the viewpoint from top-down to third-person. Here's a brief overview shared by Arrowhead:
Players can decide how to take down each enemy surge using a multitude of offensive and defensive tools. As you complete missions, you’ll be able to upgrade your ship and build an even more impressive arsenal. Everything from shield generators to turrets to large-scale airstrikes can be used to give your team the upper hand.
True to our co-op roots at Arrowhead, we’ve made sure Helldivers 2 has our best cooperative gameplay yet. Collaboration will be vital: teams will synergize on loadouts, strategize their approach for each mission, and complete objectives together. But for maximum challenge and collaboration, friendly fire is always on. Communicate with your squadmates and make sure those stray bullets and mines take down the real adversaries.
Are you excited to enforce democracy throughout the galaxy?
