Arrowhead Game Studios’ CEO, Shams Jorjani, recently created a buzz among Helldivers 2 fans by addressing a request for a new weapon: the minigun. During a casual exchange on the game’s Discord server, a fan reached out to Jorjani with the suggestion, inspired by a concept from Killzone Shadow Fall. While the idea is not yet confirmed, Jorjani’s response about bringing it up with the team leaves room for optimism among the game’s community.
Helldivers 2 has set a commendable standard for live-service games by actively engaging its player base. This level of interaction is evident, as Jorjani often communicates with fans, providing a sense of community involvement and investment from the studio. Over the past year, Arrowhead Game Studios has consistently rolled out updates and content, maintaining a vibrant experience for players. The game’s ongoing success is a testament to this proactive approach, showing no signs of waning enthusiasm.
In another interesting incident in the community, someone shared a quirky encounter within the game where two weapons unexpectedly merged, sparking discussions about whether such unique weapon combinations should officially become part of the game’s arsenal. Such player interactions not only entertain but also fuel creativity within the Helldivers universe.
The clamor for a minigun isn’t new—players have been suggesting creative implementations, such as requiring dual operators to balance its power without overpowering gameplay. Currently, the game features some sentry weapons that approximate the feel of a minigun, but nothing beats the thrill of personally wielding such power. It’s a gap that many hope the developers will fill.
Looking ahead to 2025, Helldivers 2 remains full of potential. The Galactic War continues to challenge players with dynamic Major Orders, and the game is even branching out beyond screens—a board game adaptation is set to release in April. All signs point to another robust year for Arrowhead’s engaging and chaotic shooter, solidifying its place in both digital and physical gaming spaces.
