PlayStation and Arrowhead Game Studios showed up for today’s September 2023 State of Play to give fans a Helldivers 2 release date for February 8, 2024, for PC and PlayStation 5 (PS5). The three-and-a-half-minute trailer also packs in a good look at what it will be like to team up with friends when you’re taking down building-sized monsters.
Outside of the shots of different perspectives from the squad, the footage is a mostly uncut look at how your average mission might play out. Rough acting aside, Helldivers 2 looks great, as players will have to manage giant enemies while fighting off smaller foes with the game’s new third-person, over-the-shoulder perspective. The footage also shows off some of the weapons players will be able to defend themselves with, as well as a few more glimpses at different biomes and creatures. You can see the Helldivers 2 release date and gameplay trailer below for a better look before it comes to PC and PS5 early next year.
