Helldivers-inspired ‘Helljumpers’ project offers Xbox players a new cooperative gaming adventure
Arrowhead’s PvE squad-based shooter Helldivers 2 has taken the gaming world by storm in 2024, captivating millions of PlayStation 5 and PC players who immerse themselves in defending managed democracy against the relentless onslaught of bugs and robots threatening Super Earth.
The game’s immense success has left Xbox gamers feeling a sense of FOMO, with even Phil Spencer questioning the decision to keep the multiplayer hit exclusive to PlayStation. While Helldivers 2 may not be making its way to Xbox consoles anytime soon, a new project called ‘Helljumpers’ within the Halo Infinite universe is offering a promising alternative.
Developed by a team known as The Forge Falcons, the ‘Helljumpers’ project is a Helldivers-inspired experience created using Halo Infinite’s Forge level editor. This innovative approach is set to bring a fresh and exciting gameplay experience to Xbox players, bridging the gap for those eager to dive into a similar cooperative gaming adventure.
As reported by Windows Central, the ‘Helljumpers’ project is currently in development, aiming to provide Xbox users with a thrilling gameplay experience that mirrors the engaging dynamics of Helldivers 2. While details on the project are still emerging, the prospect of exploring a new cooperative shooter within the Halo universe is generating significant anticipation among the gaming community.
