Modern video games have been constantly improving and Arrowhead Game Studios has shown signs of great change since the game was originally released early this year. The game received its fair share of backlash in the past that tainted its reputation; however, the developers did not give up and fans wonder if this could still win Game of the Year.

The Gaming Community Weighs the Chances ofHelldivers 2Winning Game of the Year

The gaming community had a great time during the earlier days ofHelldivers 2before it was plagued with performance issues, nerfs, andthe unnecessary mandate of Sony Interactive Entertainment to link their Steam accountsof PC players to an active PlayStation Network account for better online moderation. This drove a wedge between the player base and the game developers and some would argue this is where theHelldiverssequel was at its lowest point.

Arrowhead Game Studios did not give up and wanted to deliver the greatest online multiplayer experience. The gaming community noticed the developers kept their word and showed signs of improvement regardless of size likefixing the unbalanced cape designthat drove the player base nuts for the past few months. These improvements are a testament to director Johan Pilestedt’s unwavering dedication to improvement giving the fans new hope.
