Sony Interactive Entertainment [4,259 articles]” href=”https://www.videogameschronicle.com/companies/sony/”>Sony‘s biggest hit of last year, becoming PlayStation’s fastest-selling game launch ever, with sales “far exceeding expectations” at 12 million copies sold across PC and PS5 in its first 12 weeks.
As part of its attempt to create more popular live service games, Sony is increasingly launching its online titles, such as the upcoming Marathon, across multiple console platforms. However, the company has indicated that its single-player games will remain exclusive to PlayStation consoles, with later PC ports to follow.
Following the game’s launch success, Helldivers 2’s director Johan Pilestedt revealed he’d taken an extended break from game development before the studio works on its next game.
Earlier this year, Pilestedt said he was already planning Arrowhead’s next game, telling players that he was “working on the high concept” and inviting speculation on what it could be.
Arrowhead has continued to update Helldivers 2 since launch, and Pilestedt has even suggested it will work on the game until it effectively becomes ‘Helldivers 3’.
