Summary
- The Helldivers 2 x Killzone 2 crossover has come under fire for its expensive pricing.
- In response, Arrowhead is making the second part of the crossover completely free.
Yesterday, Helldivers 2 released the first half of its surprise Killzon𒅌e 2 crossover. While it has been a highly-requested collaboration since the game first launched, there was a huge amount of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:backlash fꦰrom the communit♏y over the pricing.
It got so bad that developer Arrow♏head is now making the second part of the crossover completely free.
The first half will also be available in the Superstore for ten days instead of five, ꦦand Arrowhead is "investigating solutions for how [it] can bring back these items perꦛmanently in the future."
It's a huge move to address feedback from players, but Arrowhead CEO Shams Jorjani explained just yesterday that these kinds of crossovers ꦍand cosmetics are what fund the game's enormo💟us updates. So, it remains to be seen how they'll be tackled in future.
"Firstly - this is our first collaboration so we'll be figuring it out as we go along. Let us know what you'd like to see in the future," Jorjani posted in the official Discord. "Secondly it's optio🅷nal - the more of this we sell - the more Illuminate type stuff we can keep dropping for free."

Guerrilla has confirmed what all Killzone faꦰns knew deep down.
One commenter asked Pilestedt why this happened on Twitter, and h🐈e explained, "The reason we changed it from a Warbond was actually because there were concerns that having a highe꧟r priced Warbond would carry negative sentiment".
