, Arrowhead said it had talked to Killzone developer Guerrilla Games and is now gifting the items that were meant to be sold as part of the crossover’s second wave next week.

“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,” Arrowhead said in its statement.

“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.”

Arrowhead added that it will extend the duration of the items currently in the Superstore from five days to 10 days “so that you have a chance to get hold of it and reduce the risk of missing out.” It’s also working out how to bring the Killzone items back permanently.

Meanwhile, the W.A.S.P. stratagem will be available for all to unlock via a major order shortly.
