Author: Camila Jul 09,2025

Excitement is building around *Helldivers 2*, with developer Arrowhead Game Studios hinting at some major updates that promise to leave a lasting impression. As spotted by VideoGamer, CEO Shams Jorjani joined the game’s Discord server and teased what’s coming next in an unexpectedly colorful fashion.

When a player asked if there was any small detail he could share about upcoming content, Jorjani didn’t hold back:

“You'll shit your pants.”

While vague, his response definitely hints at something big—something with serious impact. And possibly some very startled reactions from fans.

Jorjani also touched on other topics during the discussion, including plans to introduce more bladed weapons and addressing concerns about potential content droughts. He offered honest insights into the technical challenges of maintaining a live-service title like *Helldivers 2*, blending transparency with humor—especially when it came to wardrobe-related side effects.

Earlier teasers have already surfaced, including a cryptic image of a flag featuring both a pointed tip and a textured grip. While its meaning remains under wraps, Arrowhead confirmed that its next Warbond announcement is set for May 8, with even more exciting reveals expected shortly after.

In a recent interview with IGN, Alex Bolle, production director at Arrowhead, shared how the team continues to evolve while staying true to its creative vision.

"The more we figure out how to thrive in a live environment, and we still have a way to go to figure out a lot of things around that, the more we can let creativity loose on new systems that we would've never thought about a year ago when we released,"

Bolle explained that working within a live-game framework allows the studio to explore fresh ideas, adapt mechanics from other games, and tailor them to fit the unique spirit of *Helldivers 2*. It's a process that fuels innovation while keeping the core identity intact.

We’ll soon find out exactly what Arrowhead has in store. One thing’s for sure—you may want to come prepared with a spare pair of pants.
