Will Helldivers 2 Feature Crossplay on Xbox?

Helldivers 2 launches on the Xbox console family to spread democracy and liber-tea across all platforms. The chaotic multiplayer experience by Arrowhead, initially exclusive to PlayStation, is less than a week away as of writing this. Console wars finally come to a close, between corporates, as both Microsoft and Sony are joining forces to share their exclusive games.

While Helldivers 2 is indeed an interesting choice for Xbox players, an inevitable question arises: Will it feature crossplay among Xbox, PC, and PlayStation? Below you can find the answer in detail.

Does Helldivers 2 Have Crossplay on Xbox?

The answer is yes—Helldivers 2 will feature a crossplay network expanding over all platforms, including PC. After the triumphant announcement, Arrowhead revealed Crossplay’s availability:

“August will be here before we know it, which means we’ve got to get you officially enlisted – we start taking pre-orders for both the Standard Edition and the Super Citizen Edition of Helldivers 2 today! With crossplay on all platforms, get ready to add your strength to our ranks.”

If you have friends with the game on different platforms, you can now play Helldivers 2 with them; having a unique friend and network code allows it to leverage the cross-platform capabilities.

Helldivers 2 launches on August 26 for Xbox players, and they can pre-order it through the Microsoft Store—also available on the PlayStation Store and Steam for Microsoft Windows.
