Helldivers 2 is experiencing player attrition and a declining player base. Read on to learn the reason for this downturn and Arrowhead’s future plans.
Helldivers 2 Loses 90% of Players in 5 MonthsHelldivers 2's Popularity Wanes Among Steam Users
Helldivers 2, Arrowhead's acclaimed alien shooter, achieved a remarkable feat as Playstation's fastest-selling game ever upon release. Despite this initial success, the game experienced a sharp decline on Steam, with player counts falling to roughly 10% of its peak concurrency of 458,709 players.
Helldivers 2 encountered a major problem due to a notorious PSN issue earlier this year, when Sony mandated PSN account registration for Steam purchases. This excluded players from 177 countries lacking PSN access. Affected players, including those who pre-ordered, were locked out, and even those who could register experienced negative consequences. Helldivers 2 received overwhelmingly negative reviews and player numbers plummeted. The impact was so severe the game was removed from sale in regions without PSN services.
By late May, Helldivers 2 had suffered a dramatic drop, with SteamDB showing a 64% decrease to 166,305 players. Currently, the 30-day average has fallen to approximately 41,860 concurrent players, a 90% reduction from its peak.
It’s crucial to remember these statistics only reflect the Steam player base; a significant portion of the community for the Sony-published game remains active on PS5. Nevertheless, the Steam version is thought to have constituted a majority of the player base.
Helldivers 2 Freedom's Flame Warbond is arriving on August 8
Arrowhead, in an effort to address current issues and respond to the dwindling player base and attract new players, has recently announced the upcoming release of Freedom’s Flame Warbond update on August 8, 2024. This new update will introduce new weapons, armor, and missions including the highly anticipated Airburst Rocket Launcher and two new capes and cards called Purifying Eclipse, which is a heartfelt tribute to the Liberation of Choepessa IV in the First Galactic War, and The Breach, a reminder of the final mission of the 361st Freedom’s Flame. These new additions are designed to maintain the game’s popularity and attract new players in an effort to revitalize the player base.
Helldivers 2 as a Live Service Game and Push for Content
Helldivers 2, yalnızca 2 haftada 12 milyon kopya satarak, God of War: Ragnarok'tan daha iyi bir performans sergileyerek lansman sırasında tüm beklentileri aştı. Bu önemli bir başarıdır ancak canlı hizmet modeli için ideal yol bu değildir. Nitekim canlı bir servis oyunu olan Arrowhead, Helldivers 2'nin kalıcı bir başarı olmasını hedefliyor. Kesin bir son olmadığından Arrowhead sürekli olarak yeni kozmetik ürünler, ekipman ve içerik ekleyebilir, böylece sürekli bir gelir akışı yaratabilir.
Helldivers 2, bazı zorluklara rağmen kooperatif nişancı türünde önemli bir oyun olmaya devam ediyor. Azalan oyuncu tabanı, oyuncuların endişelerini derhal giderme ihtiyacının altını çiziyor. Daha fazla içerik için çabalayan ve oyuncuların ilgisini canlı tutmaya çalışan oyunun geleceğini gözlemlemek büyüleyici olacak.
