Helldivers 2 is officially coming to Xbox Series X/S on the 26th August.

This announcement came via a Helldivers announcement stream. Arrowhead’s hit third-person shooter will have full crossplay with both PC and PlayStation. Those interested can pre-order the game on the Xbox store for £34.99 now.

It’s also the first ever Sony-published game on Xbox platforms, which is certainly a massive milestone in the ongoing rivalry between the two companies (Sony’s baseball series MLB The Show is published by MLB on Xbox). Sony previously expressed interest in bringing its big games to more platforms, with this Helldivers 2 port acting as the first big sign of this shift in strategy.

Said game director Mikael Eriksson on Xbox Wire: “We know gamers have been asking for this for some time and we are so excited to bring more Helldivers into our game. We have so much more in store for the future months and years – and the more players we have the more stories we can tell! The fight for Super Earth has only just begun.”

Helldivers 2 only recently had its geographical restrictions lifted on PC, which had previously had people from countries including the Bahamas, Armenia, Burkina Faso and many more unable to play the smash hit. Now, with the game coming to Xbox, it looks like one more massive wall keeping folks apart has crumbled.

Previously, Tencent acquired a 15 percent stake in Arrowhead Games for roughly $80m. A lofty sum for a chunk of what has certainly been a rare gem in the modern live service landscape.

For those who hop into the game on Xbox, they’ll have missed the Illuminate invasion of Super Earth, as well as the special cape added to the game in memory of the review bomb fiasco. Still, there’s surely plenty more surprises yet to come for fresh-faced Xbox players.
