Helldivers 2 Xbox Release Date

Here’s what you need to know about the Xbox Series X/S release of Helldivers 2, including its launch date and full cross-play support.

Helldivers 2 expands its reach by announcing an Xbox Series X/S release on August 26, 2025. This means more players will be able to enlist and start defending Super Earth soon. Launched in early 2024 for PlayStation 5 and Windows, Helldivers 2 became a standout hit among the gaming community. This is due to its chaotic gameplay, quirky humor, and most importantly, cross-platform feature.

Nearly 18 months later, Sony’s PlayStation Publishing arm is steering Helldivers 2 onto Xbox Series X/S. This marks a rare, high-profile shift, considering this is the first Sony-published title to see a release on Xbox platforms.

“We know gamers have been asking for this for some time, and we are so excited to bring more Helldivers into our game. We have so much more in store for the future months and years – and the more players we have, the more stories we can tell! The fight for Super Earth has only just begun.”

The official Helldivers 2 announcement stream revealed that the upcoming Xbox Series X/S port will be released on August 26, 2025. In fact, pre-orders for the game are now ongoing if you can’t wait to dive into the game on release day. Additionally, the game will feature cross-play between Xbox, PC, and PS5 platforms. This means you can play with your friends no matter where they are playing.

How To Pre-Order Helldivers 2 on Xbox Series X/S

You can pre-order Helldivers 2 on Xbox Series X/S on the official Microsoft store. There are two versions of the game you can purchase:

• Heldivers 2 Standard Edition – $39.99
• Heldivers 2 Super Citizen Edition – $59.99

The Standard Edition only includes the base game with no add-ons or DLC. If you want some extra content like armor sets, accessories, and Warbond Tokens, go for the Super Citizen Edition. You don’t need to get the extra content to enjoy the game. However, if you’re an avid collector of cosmetics, you might want to consider getting the Super Citizen Edition.
