Helldivers Update 1.002.003 Brings More Crash Fixes, Matchmaking Improvements To PS5 Shooter

Arrowhead Game Studios is continuing to pump out fixes for Helldivers 2, with yet another update released that targets various crashes and connection issues. You can read the full details in the Helldivers 2 update 1.002.003 patch notes below. The latest patch comes just as the developer confirmed a Helldivers 2 x Killzone 2 crossover for the game, which is kicking off this week.

Helldivers 2 was released in February for PS5 and PC, and has remained one of the most popular titles of the year thanks to robust post-launch support from Arrowhead. Earlier this week, the studio revealed that it is feeling more confident about Helldivers 2 than at launch, and hopes that its release schedule won’t be quite as bumpy going forward in terms of fresh updates.
