Fans of Helldivers 2 are buzzing with excitement as they call on Arrowhead Game Studios to collaborate with Respawn Entertainment for a Titanfall crossover. Recently, the developers caught their attention with a Killzone 2 collaboration, but the move came with its hiccups over pricing issues. Now, players are dreaming bigger with ideas of a Titanfall-themed partnership, envisioning an array of new cosmetic items, weapons, and other exciting features.
Since the debut of Titanfall 2 in 2016, loyal fans have been fervently pleading with Respawn to revive the beloved first-person shooter series. Despite their persistent efforts, nearly a decade has passed without any substantial progress. Over the years, rumors of a Titanfall 3 have circulated, yet it seems Respawn remains focused on its widely successful battle royale, Apex Legends. Though it shares the Titanfall universe, many fans are still holding out hope for a return to the series’ roots following its predecessors’ success.
Recently, a Reddit user named CleanTemperature7243 jumped into the discussion by proposing a Titanfall collaboration with Helldivers 2. The idea, shared on the Helldivers subreddit, outlines a potential partnership featuring two new skins and three new weapons, namely the M1A3 Hemlock BF-R, C.A.R SMG, and a choice between a Spitfire LMG or Smart Pistol. Additionally, they suggested a new cape, reminiscent of the pilots’ scarf from Titanfall, be included in the mix.
The Helldivers 2 community praised this creative mockup, with users like Fredderov expressing that Titanfall’s aesthetic would fit perfectly with Helldivers 2. Others chimed in, suggesting that any collaboration should also feature a skin for the Exosuit Mechs, which made their debut in March 2024.
If Arrowhead Game Studios decides to listen to its community and pursue a Titanfall collaboration, they’ll need to proceed carefully. The recent Killzone 2 partnership sparked disappointment among players due to the high cost of new cosmetic items and weapons. When it became clear that acquiring all exclusive items could cost more than $40, the studio was quick to apologize. In an effort to make amends, Arrowhead gifted players the second wave of items at no extra charge.
Helldivers 2 invites players to embrace the chaos of war as part of an elite squad known as the Helldivers. It’s a cooperative shooter for PS5 and PC where you and up to three friends can rally together against an alien menace threatening Super Earth. Whether you’re calling in reinforcements or leveraging powerful loadouts and strategies, teamwork is crucial in Arrowhead’s Most cooperative gaming experience. Join the ranks to fight for peace, liberty, and democracy—because in this game, you are not just a player; you are a Helldiver.
