If you're worried that the Helldivers 2 board game is a hasty cash-in, the developers have something they'd like to say: not on your life, pal. This ode to Super Earth and interstellar bugs who just don't know when to quit has been made by fans, for fans. The aim? For it to be a shotgun barrage of democracy straight to the face, just like its inspiration.
"For the people who aren't sure, or are on the fence, just know that this game was made by people who really love Helldivers, who play Helldivers, and want to make sure that this is the best Helldivers board game adaptation it can possibly be," designer Nicholas Yu tells me when we catch up ahead of the Helldivers 2 board game crowdfunding campaign.
