Our Chris Tapsell shared his thoughts on Helldivers 2 yesterday, calling the game “a breath of fresh air”.
“Helldivers 2 is a blast; a messy, frenetic, straight-into-the-action whirlwind of quickfire jokes quickplay matches (when they’re working). If you played even the slightest bit of the first Helldivers, though, none of this should come as a surprise,” Chris wrote in Eurogamer’s Helldivers 2 feature, before concluding:
“If video games are looking for answers right now, this one might be a good place to start.”
