Helldivers 2Fans seem to be losing patience as they wait to add their cross-platform buddies between PlayStation 5 and PC. Arrowhead Game Studios CEO Johan Pilestedt addressed the request quite a few times but fans continue to post requesting the feature. Ever since the game’s launch, the well-made live-service title has got PlayStation 5 and PC gamers rating it ever so highly.

The post-launch content so far has also added a lot of quality to the game, with the game setting the bar high for future live-service games. Gamers are not able to add contacts from either of the two available platforms and feel disconnected from friends who are not playing the game on the same platform.

Pilestedt also posted on X about the team actively working on finding a solution to adding cross-platform players which he stated is seen to be working for some but is broken for others.
