Helldivers 2 CEO Vows Chainsword Will Slash Its Way Into the Game

Arrowhead Game Studios promises chainswords for Helldivers 2, keeping melee combat alive and kicking.

Helldivers 2 continues to build on its reputation as a fan-responsive sci-fi co-op shooter, with Arrowhead Game Studios revealing some interesting plans for melee combat. The studio’s CEO, Shams Jorjani, has taken to the official Discord to make a bold promise: the team won’t rest until some kind of chainsword is in the game. A chainsword, that iconic weapon of ripping and tearing through enemies with brutal elegance.

Fans already know that the game added melee weapons, such as swords, spears, and even pseudo-lightsabers, which brought a fresh layer to the chaotic combat. But the CEO’s vow hints at a classic shooter vibe creeping in, promising even more visceral close-quarters mayhem. Imagine slashing through Automatons, sending shrapnel and oil flying everywhere. It sounds pretty gnarly, doesn’t it?

Jorjani also mentioned that a potential Helldivers 3 is likely many years away, as the team is fully focused on supporting Helldivers 2 for the long haul. That makes sense given how much the game has evolved since launch, with hefty updates keeping the player base engaged. Plus, the upcoming Xbox Series X port will arrive simultaneously with Gears of War: Reloaded, talk about a day packed with heavy firepower!

With the developers committed to ongoing support and adding fan-favorite features like the chainsword, Helldivers 2 looks set to keep spreading democracy in style for quite some time. And while DLSS and FSR are still on the wishlist, the devs are prioritizing fixing basic performance issues first. It’s clear Arrowhead wants the game to run smoothly before layering on extra tech bells and whistles.

What do you think about the promise of chainswords in Helldivers 2? Are you ready to rip and tear your way through hordes of alien threats with one of these brutal melee weapons?
