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 intense discussions within the gaming community about potential future crossovers, particularly with the renowned Warhammer 40,000 universe. Speculation has been rife about whether such a collaboration could ever happen, given the protective nature of the Warhammer franchise's rights holder, Games Workshop.

However, Arrowhead Studios' head, Shams Jorjani, addressed these concerns directly, stating, "I can say that GW would love a crossover, we're big fans of [Warhammer] 40k ourselves." This statement has been eagerly interpreted by Helldivers 2 fans as a strong hint towards a possible future collaboration with Games Workshop.

The premium content strategy for Helldivers 2 has been carefully curated, with the recent Killzone 2 partnership serving as a prime example. The developers have made it clear that such crossovers will be rare and will only be pursued if they seamlessly integrate into the game's universe, enhancing the overall experience without feeling forced or out of place.

In line with the current Killzone collaboration, players can participate in community challenges related to the Galactic War to earn more themed rewards. This approach not only keeps the community engaged but also aligns with the game's thematic integrity, ensuring that any crossover content feels like a natural extension of the Helldivers 2 universe.
