Soldiers of Super Earth are rallying to Helldivers 2, with the Escalation of Freedom update launching yesterday seeing the title crack 60,000 concurrent players for the first time in well over a month. The real question: How long will they fight the good fight?
Concurrent player counts hit 62,819 for the release of Helldivers 2’s Escalation of Freedom, according to stats site SteamDB. As far as historical numbers are concerned, it’s a drop in the bucket for the Arrowhead Game Studios title, but given Helldivers 2 hadn’t surpassed 37,000 concurrents through most of July, it’s given devs and long-time fans hope that new content for the game will keep others interested for longer.
