PlayStation gamers better prepare for some serious competition. Helldivers 2 jumps ship to Xbox Series X/S this summer on August 26. Arrowhead Games finally answered the desperate pleas from Xbox players who wanted to join the alien-blasting action. The studio's chief creative officer Johan Pilestedt broke the news during a special livestream announcement. Fans have been demanding this crossover since the game launched exclusively on PlayStation and PC.
Xbox players can already place pre-orders for the highly anticipated shooter. The game will not appear on Xbox Game Pass at launch despite Microsoft's subscription service push. Game director Mikael Eriksson expressed excitement about bringing more soldiers into the fight for Super Earth. The developer promised plenty of content updates and expansions for the growing player base. More players means bigger battles and wilder stories according to the development team.
This announcement arrives during a terrible week for Microsoft's gaming division. The tech giant fired over 9,000 employees across all departments with major cuts hitting Xbox studios. Multiple gaming projects got canceled including Rare's Everwild and The Initiative's Perfect Dark reboot. ZeniMax Online lost their secret MMO project and several other unannounced games disappeared forever. Romero Studios saw their funding vanish as Microsoft executives wielded the budget ax without mercy.
