At Sony’s CES 2024 press conference, Helldivers 2, the highly anticipated co-op third-person shooter from Arrowhead Game Studios, appears to have been delayed. Fans were caught off guard when, at about 22:53 into the press conference, the game was listed with a new release date of February 28 instead of the previously announced February 8.
This isn’t the first hiccup for Helldivers 2. Initially slated for a 2023 launch, the game has already seen its fair share of delays. What’s peculiar this time is the silence from both PlayStation and Arrowhead Game Studios. No official statement confirms the delay, and the PlayStation Store still shows the February 8th release date. Is this another bump in the road or just a mix-up? We’re as eager as you are to find out! You can find the CES 24 press conference below.
The latest gameplay footage is a treat, showcasing the menacing robots of the Automaton faction. The new release date places Helldivers 2 just a day before the launch of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
