It\\'s worth recalling that Helldivers 2 holds the title of the fastest-selling PlayStation Studios game ever, amassing an incredible 12 million copies sold in just 12 weeks—a record unlikely to be surpassed by any first-party Sony-developed game. However, since its explosive launch, the game has navigated through turbulent waters, including a significant reversal on PSN account requirements on Steam, review-bombing campaigns, and a community often at odds with the game itself due to contentious nerfs and buffs.

Throughout these challenges, Arrowhead has grappled with managing a larger and more mainstream playerbase than ever before. Now, 14 months post-launch on PC and PlayStation 5, Arrowhead is reflecting on its journey. Has the studio finally mastered the demanding world of live-service games? And following their successful Killzone collaboration, could a partnership with Warhammer 40,000 be on the horizon?

To delve deeper into these questions, IGN conducted an interview with Alex Bolle, the production director of Helldivers 2, to gain insights into Arrowhead\\'s experiences and future plans.
