Read moreHelldivers II is a smashing success on PC and PlayStation 5, but could it expand with a single-player story mode? No, it won’t. That’s according to Arrowhead Studios CEO Shams Jorjani. Someone asked him on social media if Helldivers II could introduce a story mode, and the executive plainly stated, “Not happening. Sorry bro.”
Why not? According to Jorjani, it would be like “building an entirely new game,” and that’s not in the cards. So for now at least, Helldivers II will remain a multiplayer game exclusively.
Jorjani went on to discuss Helldivers II’s latest patch, which was a big one. He said putting it together was a “big team effort,” going on to promise that Arrowhead is not packing up and moving on. “We’ll keep at it bit by bit to make the game better, bigger, and mor…

At the end of his joint Twitch stream with AOC, Walz briefly played Crazy Taxi, although he was admittedly rusty after so many years away from the game. Regardless, he still showed off some of his skills in the game.
As alluded to by Walz in the clip above,…
