Helldivers 2 is using a excessive proper now as a current replace and the upcoming launch of its subsequent Warbond has resulted in a surge of gamers. However what about developer Arrowhead’s subsequent sport?
Regardless of Helldivers 2 being a Sony backed title, Arrowhead is definitely an unbiased developer. Contemplating the success of Helldivers 2, although, you would possibly suppose that Arrowhead would need to leap straight again into mattress with Sony, however that’s not the case, apparently.
As reported by Bloomberg, Arrowhead CEO Shams Jorjani spoke on Discord, explaining that the immense success of Helldivers 2 means they’ve the liberty to completely fund their subsequent sport, giving them inventive management.
“The great factor is that due to the superb help of you FINE individuals Arrowhead’s future is kind of vivid and we’ve the liberty to discover some actually cool ideas that we couldn’t have in any other case,” stated Shams. “Sport 6 (our subsequent undertaking) will occur the way in which it’s going to occur due to you. The following sport is 100% funded by ourselves so we’ll name 100% of these photographs.”
One consumer questioned whether or not there was some type of unhealthy blood between Sony and Arrowhead, however Shams was fast to dismiss such concepts: “No manner. Ps are nice. there could be no Helldivers if it wasn’t for them. We’re open to working with them once more sooner or later. they’re extremely sport/dev oriented. strong companions. and that is me simply saying it like it’s. not blowing smoke up their asses.”
The actual shock, to my thoughts, is that Sony hasn’t tried to purchase Arrowhead after how nicely Helldivers 2 has carried out. Maybe that isn’t for an absence of attempting, although, as a result of Arrowhead appears content material to stay an unbiased studio that may stay creatively true to itself.
