From out of nowhere, co-op shooter Helldivers 2 has taken gamers on PS5 and PC by storm. However, Xbox owners have been consigned to watching from afar as the hit game is yet to make its way to their platform.
Thankfully, due to the publishing agreements behind the game and the history of the Helldivers IP we have a pretty good idea of if you can expect the game to ever land on Xbox – though unfortunately, it’s not good news.
Is Helldivers 2 coming to Xbox?
Helldivers 2 is currently not set to come to Xbox. The game is published by Sony Interactive Entertainment and Sony also owns the Helldivers IP, so it seems incredibly unlikely that the company will ever bring it to the rival console.
This is going to be disappointing for players who were hoping to one day join the ranks of the Helldivers on Xbox. Phil Spencer himself seems to want the game on Xbox as he said “I’m not exactly sure who it helps in the industry by not being on Xbox” when speaking with Stephen Totilo for his Game File newsletter.
