Helldivers 2 creator hints at possible collab with Warhammer 40,000

The collaboration between the co-op shooter Helldivers 2 and the Killzone franchise has sparked a flurry of discussions within the gaming community, particularly about the potential for a crossover with another iconic franchise, Warhammer 40,000. Fans are buzzing with excitement over the possibility of integrating elements from the Warhammer universe into Helldivers 2, wondering if such a collaboration could become a reality.

Some community members have expressed skepticism about the feasibility of a Warhammer 40,000 collaboration, citing Games Workshop's stringent licensing policies. However, Arrowhead Studios' head, Shams Jorjani, has fueled hope among fans by stating, "I can say that GW would love a crossover, we're big fans of [Warhammer] 40k ourselves." This comment has been widely interpreted as a hint that a partnership with Games Workshop might be on the horizon.

Helldivers 2's premium content has been carefully curated to include thematic crossovers, as evidenced by the recent partnership with Killzone. Arrowhead Studios has made it clear that such collaborations will be rare and will only be considered if they enhance and logically extend the game's universe. This approach ensures that any new content aligns seamlessly with the existing gameplay and narrative.

In line with the Killzone collaboration, players have the opportunity to earn themed rewards through the Galactic War-related community challenge. This initiative not only enhances player engagement but also celebrates the crossover in a meaningful way, allowing the community to participate actively in the game's evolving narrative.
