Arrowhead CEO Hints All New Weapons Are Coming To Helldivers 2, Wants Artists With Military Service For Super Earth

Helldivers 2, the hugely popular co-op shooter from Arrowhead Game Studios, is still faring extremely well with players even 5 weeks after launch. With the recent Cutting Edge Warbonds update adding mechs and new weapons, it seems Arrowhead will continue to add compelling content to the game.

A recent statement by CEO Johan Pilestedt seemingly proves their pursuit of adding new content. Pilestedt hinted at an arsenal of all-new weaponry coming to the third-person co-op shooter in the near future.

today about some vacancies at Arrowhead for concept artists.

And by good, I mean you should ideally have done military service, are an avid shooter and you must have a great sense of how weapons function and operate.

Also, you ofc needs to be a stellar artist.

The specific requirements for new ******* artists suggest that the studio may be focusing on adding a lot of new weapons in the future. The emphasis on military service and real-world ******* experience speaks to a ******* for a more grounded and realistic approach to the game’s arsenal.

This doesn’t necessarily mean a departure from the game’s hilarious nature. Instead, it could indicate a move towards a satirical take on modern military technology, with players wielding outlandish variants of real-world weaponry.

As Helldivers 2 continues to grow as a live service game, Arrowhead will have to grow in accordance as well. Seeking concept artists with military experience and a deep understanding of firearms would be valuable assets to design weapons for the inter-galactic war.

Of course, there’s always the chance that Pilestedt is simply looking for someone who can perfectly capture the look and feel of real-world weaponry, while still maintaining the series’ signature wacky elements.

A ******* concept artist with military experience would undoubtedly possess a unique perspective on how to translate the technical aspects of firearms into visually appealing and believable in-game designs.

Arrowhead’s commitment to Helldivers 2 has been faultless, whether it was working day and night behind-the-scenes to fix the server issues at launch, or seeking out an artist with a unique blend of artistic talent and real-world military knowledge to lay the groundwork for a brand-new arsenal of weapons that promises to spread democracy ever so effectively.

Only time, and the ingenuity of Arrowhead’s new ******* artists, will tell whether these new firearms will be grounded in realism or hilariously over-the-top. One thing’s for sure, though, there’s no better studio than Arrowhead to back Helldivers 2 and its players fighting to rid the galaxy of its invaders.
