It\\'s worth recalling that Helldivers 2 holds the title of the fastest-selling PlayStation Studios game ever, with an astonishing 12 million copies sold in just 12 weeks. This record-breaking achievement is unlikely to be surpassed by any first-party Sony-developed game. Since its explosive launch, the game has faced numerous challenges, including a controversial reversal on PSN account requirements on Steam, intense review-bombing campaigns, and a community often at odds with the game itself due to frequent nerfs and buffs that either went too far or not far enough.

Arrowhead has had to navigate the complexities of managing a significantly larger and more mainstream playerbase than ever before. Now, 14 months after Helldivers 2\\'s release on PC and PlayStation 5, the developer is reflecting on its journey. Has Arrowhead finally mastered the challenging landscape of live-service gaming? Following the successful Killzone collaboration, could a partnership with Warhammer 40,000 be on the horizon?

To delve deeper into these questions, IGN had the opportunity to sit down with Alex Bolle, the production director of Helldivers 2, to gain insights into Arrowhead\\'s experiences and future plans.
