Helldivers 2 Dev Urges More 'Compassion' In Response To Negative Xbox Tweet

Sony's Helldivers 2 continues be brought up in relation to Xbox at the moment, even though it's not part of the platform and seemingly won't be coming to it - at least not anytime soon!. This latest example comes courtesy of Twitter (or "X" if you really want to call it that), where the CEO of Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead Game Studios felt the need to comment on a tweet that suggested the game is better than Xbox's Halo series.

In their reply, they questioned why Helldivers 2 and Halo need to be compared at all, and urged that gamers should be allowed to "love and enjoy both, either or neither". As a result, they've racked up a massive number of "likes" so far!

As you'd probably expect, there are a lot of people in the comments questioning why Helldivers 2 isn't on Xbox yet despite the CEO's thoughts - but obviously that's not in Arrowhead's hands, as Sony would have to give approval for it.

Nevertheless, we're fully in agreement with what's being said here, and hopefully one day Xbox's Phil Spencer will get his wishes - seeing the game on a Microsoft console! In the meantime, that petition to bring it to Xbox has now almost reached 100,000 signatures, clearly showing there's major interest in a Series X and Series S version.

Do you think we'll ever get Helldivers 2 on Xbox? Would you even want it? Tell us in the comments below.
