In the turbulent landscape of PlayStation's live service games, where many titles are faltering, one shining star has emerged: **Helldivers 2**. This thrilling co-op PvE experience, where players unite against hordes of bugs, robots, and now cunning aliens, has captivated gamers around the globe.

Breaking Free from Sony's Grip!

The success of Helldivers 2 has paved the way for Arrowhead Studios to take an exciting leap. Developer **Shams Jorjani** announced via Discord that their next game, referred to as **Game 6**, will no longer be tied to PlayStation. With a heart full of gratitude, Jorjani expressed, "Thanks to the amazing support from our fine fans, Arrowhead's future looks bright! We can now explore innovative concepts without any limitations."

The upcoming title will be entirely self-funded, meaning Arrowhead will call all the shots. This independence signifies that players can expect it to launch on various platforms, including PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.

A Lasting Partnership?

Despite moving away from exclusivity, there's no sign of hostility between Arrowhead and Sony. Jorjani clarified, "PlayStation has been an incredible partner. There would be no Helldivers without their support. We're open to collaborating with them again in the future." Their respectful stance hints at a robust and positive ongoing relationship with the gaming giant.

What's Next for Arrowhead?

As for the upcoming title, development has only just begun, so it's likely to be some time before fans get their hands on it. Creative director **Johan Pilestedt** already hinted in early 2025 that they’ve initiated "planning and conceptualization." While fans eagerly await any announcement, it’s highly unlikely this new game will follow in the footsteps of Helldivers 3.

Arrowhead’s track record boasts various genres, including fantasy classics and modern shooters, which leaves a broad field of creativity for Game 6. With newfound resources and the freedom to innovate, fans can expect something truly unique.

Anticipating the Unknown!

While the details of the new game remain shrouded in mystery, the excitement is palpable. With Arrowhead stepping boldly into this new chapter, only time will reveal what they have in store. Could we witness a thrilling fantasy adventure, or perhaps another modern classic? With their track record, whatever it is, it’s bound to be spectacular!
