Helldivers 2 receives first ever crossover with Killzone 2 cosmetics

"We decided a long time ago to do crossovers only if and when they make perfect sense for the game," theSteam postreads. "So in that spirit, we're hyped to announce our very first crossover: Killzone 2."

Available now in the Superstore are a new armour set, primary weapon, player banner, cape, and player title.

A second batch will then be available from 23rd December.

The post also hints at other content: "High Command informs us that beyond the Superstore content, there’s also an additional Killzone 2 reward for allHelldiversdepending on your success in the Galactic War…"

The collaboration additionally marks the start of a longer rotation of items in the store, as Arrowhead temporarily tests a five day rotation.

"Right now, many of you feel the items are in rotation for too short a time, and that you sometimes miss out on that killer look you had your eyes on," it said. "At the same time, the more things we add to the store the longer it takes to come back into rotation."

Following the collaboration, page rotation on the store will return to normal as the developer gathers feedback.

Last week, aHelldivers 2 limited edition controllerwas revealed.

Killzone 2 was released for the PS3 back in 2009 by Guerrilla Games, published by Sony. It was followed up byKillzone 3in 2011,Killzone: Mercenaryon the PS Vita in 2013, and then Killzone: Shadow Fall for the launch of PS4 that same year.

Since then, there's been no word of a new game in the series.

Indeed, in October Guerrilla art director Roy Postma suggested thestudio was done with the seriesand created Horizon Zero Dawn to "refresh the palette".
