Arrowhead Game Studios has already begun work on its next game, but how does a developer follow a galactic success as beloved as Helldivers 2? Former CEO and current CCO Johan Pilestedt says whatever the team does next will "continue the legacy" of the co-op sensation.
Speaking to GamesRadar+ at The Golden Joystick Awards 2025, where Helldivers 2 was up for the 'Still Playing' trophy, Pilestedt said the developer is currently in his favorite phase of production: the beginning. "It's the part that I love the most," he explains. "When you get a new team together, break down all the boundaries between each other, really get to the heart of who we are as people, and what games do we want to make together."
