Arrowhead CEO Confirms Helldivers 2 Will not Be Getting A Bespoke Co-Op Story Mode

Helldivers 2 arrived on the scene and stunned everybody with how enjoyable it’s to play and the way enjoyable it’s to role-play inside the little story the sport provides.

It’s a multiplayer sport in the beginning, however the narrative you observe that’s Tremendous Earth spreading democracy and the way its efforts are going throughout completely different battlefronts is one gamers get deep into.

Which leads gamers immediately into imaging how cool it could be to play a correct story mode, one thing that’s nonetheless co-op based mostly however maybe with extra linear missions with massive set-pieces.

In the event you assume that feels like one thing cool Arrowhead may do, you’re not improper – however it received’t be occurring. Affirmation of this got here down from Arrowhead’s chief govt officer, Shams Jorjani, who replied to a fan asking Arrowhead to launch a narrative mode.

“Not occurring. Sorry bro. That’s like constructing a completely new sport,” he stated in response. A disappointing reply for anybody who’d fortunately play a narrative mode in Helldivers 2, positive.

However Jorjani’s level nonetheless stands that to easily ask Arrowhead to ‘make a narrative mode’ is much more work than the common participant would possibly assume. It could be extraordinarily troublesome, if not virtually unattainable, for Arrowhead to maintain the primary multiplayer mode up and operating, create new content material for that after which create this story mode that might doubtlessly warrant much more content material be made after its preliminary launch.

And that’s all earlier than even moving into whether or not or not Arrowhead desires to go down this street. If it did, then it in all probability would’ve already accomplished it/been engaged on it.
