Helldivers 2 Set to Become First Sony-Published Game to Launch on Xbox
Briefly

Helldivers 2, a co-op shooter developed by Arrowhead Game Studios and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, will be available on Xbox Series S/X starting August 26. This release marks the first instance of a PlayStation-published game being launched on an Xbox platform. Following its successful launch on PS5 and PC, where it sold 12 million copies in the initial 12 weeks, the game is set to attract new players to its live service model. Pre-orders are currently available on the Xbox Store.
"We know gamers have been asking for this for some time and we are so excited to bring more Helldivers into our game. We have so much more in store for the future months and years - and the more players we have the more stories we can tell! The fight for Super Earth has only just begun," Helldivers 2 director Mikael Eriksson said in the Xbox Wire announcement.
Helldivers 2 marks the first time a Sony-published game is crossing over to the Xbox platform. The game was published by Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) and launched on PS5 and PC simultaneously.
Helldivers 2 is PlayStation's fastest-selling game ever, with 12 million copies sold across PC and PS5 in the first 12 weeks. With its upcoming Xbox launch, the game is primed to sell more and could pave the way for future live service PlayStation games to launch on Xbox Series S/X.
A new dawn is upon us. Super Earth is expanding its operations and opening new enlistment centres. Xbox players, your opportunity to enlist is coming when HELLDIVERS 2 deploys to Xbox Series X|S on August 26.
