Helldivers 2 Devs Respond to Server Issues As It Passes All-Time Steam Concurrents of Destiny 2 and Starfield

Helldivers 2 is off to a great start as it has already passed the all-time Steam concurrents of games like Destiny 2 and Starfield alongside being a PlayStation console exclusive. However, developer Arrowhead Game Studios has said those massive amounts of players are causing server capacity issues it is working “without delay” to fix.

While we don’t know the player numbers on PlayStation 5, SteamDB has revealed that Helldivers 2 has reached an all-time concurrent max of 333,827, which puts it 28th all-time ahead of Starfield, PUBG: Test Server, Counter-Strike, Destiny 2, and Naraka: Bladepoint. As of this writing, it is sitting at 219,670 concurrent players.

Arrowhead took to X/Twitter to address those fans who are experiencing issues diving in “for Freedom.” Rest assured, the team is doing all it can to fix any issues plaguing the game so all players can take out some bugs, bots, and more without worry.

“Despite our best efforts to increase server capacity to accommodate all of you who want to dive for Freedom, we are experiencing capacity issues,” Arrowhead wrote. “We are once more working without delay to improve the issue and we hope to have a fix in place as soon as possible. Thank you.”

We here at IGN certainly get the appeal of this “rare modern multiplayer game the does almost everything right.” In our Helldivers 2 review, we said its “combat feels fantastic, its missions stay fresh and interesting, and its smart progression system doesn’t nickel and dime you.”

We will keep you updated on the status of the servers, and until then you can check out our extensive and ever-growing Helldivers 2 wiki, how the devs will alleviate rewards issues with weekend bonuses, and our look at why Helldivers 2 is just so awesome.
