A Sony partnership program mission briefing sent to website Insider Gaming has indicated that Helldivers 2 is launching in October 2023.
The mission briefing mentions that creators are told to “mention that the game will be released in October,” although an exact date remains unknown at this point.
Here’s the official blurb on Helldivers 2:
Freedom. Peace. Managed Democracy. Your Super Earth-born rights. The key pillars of our civilization. These are under attack from deadly alien civilizations, conspiring to destroy the Super Earth and its values. You’ll step into the boots of an elite class of soldiers whose mission is to spread peace, liberty, and Managed Democracy using the biggest, baddest, and most explosive tools in the galaxy.
Team up with up to four friends and wreak havoc on the alien scourge that threatens the safety of your home, Super Earth. The Helldivers must take on the role of galactic peacekeepers in this Galactic War and protect their home planet, spread the message of Democracy, and liberate the hostiles by force.
Arrowhead Game Studios recently shared more details on the cooperative features on Helldivers 2, with stratagems forming a core part of the process as you must carefully select your loadout with your teammates.
