Pilestedt responded that updates will arrive more frequently now that the team is in a stronger technical position. This year, larger content drops became less common as development resources were redirected to other priorities within Helldivers 2.
An accumulation of patches, hotfixes and incremental changes introduced some feature regression, created performance problems and caused the PC install size to swell. Arrowhead has been actively working to stabilize gameplay and trim the game’s footprint on players’ drives.

Arrowhead’s Helldivers 2 team is reportedly developing a roguelite mode that could fundamentally change the game’s loop.
