A Helldivers x Killzone Update: Season's Greetings

Seasons greetings, Helldivers!

We’re here to talk to you about our crossover with Killzone, which added new premium items to the Superstore.

As this was our first crossover offering, we’ve been listening to the response, and the feedback we’ve received from our community surveys is that crossover content is really high up on your wishlists.

At the same time, some of you are not happy with the prices of the items and we will revisit this.

Many of you were also concerned that items wouldn’t be in rotation for long enough, and there was a bit of concern around how these items exist outside of our usual Warbond releases, which are always themed in our own universe.

Because of all this, in partnership with our friends at Guerrilla (and as we’re in the season of holiday cheer), we’ve decided to offer a gift to all players.

Firstly, we are gifting to everyone the planned second wave of the Helldivers x Killzone collaboration items today, free of charge. The distribution of those items will begin shortly, in two waves.

As such we're also going to extend the duration of the items currently in the Superstore from 5 days to 10 days so that you have a chance to get hold of it and reduce the risk of missing out.

We’re also investigating solutions for how we can bring these items back permanently in the future.

The W.A.S.P. stratagem will be available for you all to unlock via a major order shortly.

We hope you have a great holiday period, and continue to enjoy spreading managed democracy in Omens of Tyranny!

Merry Christmas,
Arrowhead Game Studios & Guerrilla Games
