Now that Arrowhead&#8217;s got enough credits in the Super Earth bank, it won&#8217;t have to rely on Sony for a partnership anymore.<\/p>\n<p>In an earlier message, Jorjani writes: &#8220;The wonderful thing is that thanks to the amazing support of you FINE people, Arrowhead&#8217;s future is quite bright and we have the freedom to explore some really cool concepts that we couldn&#8217;t have otherwise. Game six (our next project) will happen the way it will happen thanks to you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Does this mean, then, that Arrowhead has some proper lingering beef with Sony? While the studio has <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/with-over-84-thousand-negative-helldivers-2-steam-reviews-in-two-days-developer-arrowhead-seems-to-be-grappling-with-sony-over-its-controversial-psn-sign-in-requirement\/\">grappled with the gaming giant<\/a> in the past, Jorjani reassures players that there&#8217;s no hard feelings, in a reply to one comment about the studio &#8216;ditching&#8217; Sony now that it had got what it wanted.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No way. Playstation are great. There would be no Helldivers if it wasn&#8217;t for them. We&#8217;re open to working with them again in the future. They are incredibly game\/dev oriented. Solid partners. And this is me just saying it like it is. Not blowing smoke up their asses.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While I&#8217;m sure Jorjani wants to maintain some degree of diplomacy, here\u2014and I think Sony&#8217;s PSN decisions were absolutely baffling\u2014he&#8217;s not entirely wrong. It&#8217;s easy to forget, but during the game&#8217;s early days of chaotic server crashes and infernal login queues, <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/sony-engineers-are-being-drafted-into-the-helldivers-2-server-war-effort-though-arrowheads-ceo-says-to-get-it-later-if-youre-strapped-for-cash\/\">Sony was a consistent lifeline<\/a> to an otherwise overwhelmed studio.<\/p>\n<p>More cynically, <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/arrowhead-initially-planned-to-make-helldivers-2-in-3-yearsinstead-it-took-7-years-11-months-and-26-days-but-grit-camaraderie-and-compassion-saw-the-team-through\/\">Helldivers 2 took eight years to make<\/a>.

Sony definitely jeopardised Arrowhead&#8217;s rep in the past with its boneheaded choices, but it also published the game with money a pre-Helldivers 2 Arrowhead probably didn&#8217;t have to spend\u2014if it&#8217;s a break, then I reckon Jorjani&#8217;s right to make it a clean one.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"e60b4dd6-2ea0-4de4-8cac-133822ce7f54\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"2025 games\" data-dimension48=\"2025 games\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:400px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"Vji3V6i3HDWUHeQ22PrjFL\" name=\"New Project (8).jpg\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/after-helldivers-2-arrowheads-next-game-will-be-100-funded-by-ourselves-though-ceo-shams-jorjani-says-theres-no-hard-feelings-over-sonys-boneheaded-psn-shenanigans.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/new-games-2025-upcoming-pc-release-schedule\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"e60b4dd6-2ea0-4de4-8cac-133822ce7f54\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"2025 games\" data-dimension48=\"2025 games\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>2025 games<\/strong><\/a>: This year&#8217;s upcoming releases<strong><br \/><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-pc-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best PC games<\/strong><\/a>: Our all-time favorites<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-50-best-free-pc-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Free PC games<\/strong><\/a>: Freebie fest<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-fps-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best FPS games<\/strong><\/a>: Finest gunplay<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-rpgs-of-all-time\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best RPGs<\/strong><\/a>: Grand adventures<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-co-op-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best co-op games<\/strong><\/a>: Better together<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/third-person-shooter\/after-helldivers-2-arrowheads-next-game-will-be-100-percent-funded-by-ourselves-though-ceo-shams-jorjani-says-theres-no-hard-feelings-over-sonys-boneheaded-psn-shenanigans\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Infinite stratagem glitches aside, Helldivers 2 really does seem to&#8217;ve pulled up from some pretty dire times after a chaotic first year.
