Helldivers 2 CEO Promises Shocking Upcoming Features

If you're a fan of Helldivers 2, the anticipation is real—and Arrowhead Game Studios has just cranked it up a notch. As reported by VideoGamer, CEO Shams Jorjani recently shared some tantalizing tidbits about the upcoming release during a discussion on the game’s Discord channel. When asked for hints about what’s in store, his response was nothing short of memorable: "You'll shit your pants."

While cryptic, this statement certainly paints a vivid picture of the magnitude of what’s coming. It suggests that whatever Arrowhead has planned will pack a punch—one that could leave players stunned or, perhaps, scrambling for reinforcements.

Jorjani didn’t stop there—he also touched on fan concerns, such as addressing worries about content droughts and adding more bladed weapons. He even opened up about the challenges of managing technical debt in a game like Helldivers 2, offering insight into how the team approaches long-term development. Meanwhile, production director Alex Bolle chimed in during an IGN interview, emphasizing Arrowhead’s commitment to staying innovative and creative while evolving into a live-service model. For Bolle, this means experimenting with new ideas and pushing boundaries, all while staying true to their vision.

There’s already been some subtle foreshadowing, with mentions of a flag design that combines sharp edges with a gripping feature. Arrowhead has hinted that they plan to unveil their next Warbond on May 8, with additional exciting announcements soon to follow.

Mark your calendars—next week could very well mark the beginning of a new era for Helldivers 2. And remember, if Jorjani’s words are any indication, you might want to keep an extra pair of pants handy.
