Arrowhead Game Studios’ Co-op Shooter Achieves Impressive Milestone on PC Platform
Arrowhead Game Studios’ Helldivers 2 has emerged as a resounding success, breaking records for console-exclusive titles on the Steam platform. While the co-op shooter remains exclusive to PlayStation 5 consoles, its availability on PC has propelled it to new heights, surpassing even recent Xbox exclusives in terms of concurrent players.
At its peak, Helldivers 2 on Steam has reached an all-time high of 333,827 concurrent players. This achievement notably surpasses the peak player count of Starfield, Bethesda Game Studios’ highly anticipated title, which reached 330,827 players at its best. Additionally, Helldivers 2 outpaced the concurrent player count of Destiny 2, a popular multiplayer game, which reached 316,750 players at its peak.
Starfield hailed as one of Bethesda Game Studios’ major releases, experienced significant success upon its September launch, attracting over 12 million players. However, Helldivers 2’s remarkable performance on Steam demonstrates its growing popularity and appeal among PC gamers.
Interested individuals can track Helldivers 2’s statistics and growth on Steamdb, where it continues to garner attention and support from players. For those interested in experiencing the game, Helldivers 2 is available for purchase on Steam for $39.99 USD, offering an opportunity to join the action-packed adventure even without a PlayStation 5 console.
