Helldivers 2 is a title that seems to be losing many of its players, which was inevitable as complaints about the game have started growing among regular players.

However, loyal players stay despite the horde of people leaving Helldivers 2. The game recently did something to make it more accessible to people by offering an incredible Japanese voice pack.

Helldivers 2 is driven by its lore, which binds people worldwide and encourages them to fight together. Despite English being one of the world’s most widely spoken languages, the team at Arrowhead saw it fit to add more localization packs for gamers around the world.

A member of the Heldivers 2 subreddit shared the news in the form of the game’s iconic intro, now dubbed in Japanese. Not just OP but almost everyone seemed to be all praises for the step taken by the team to make the game more inclusive.

Initially, only Japanese players could access the Japanese voice pack, and others were restricted to English. However, any player can now enjoy the voice pack in Helldivers 2, regardless of their geographical language.

Moreover, one can see that the post has a whopping number of upvotes and comments, meaning that players both like and want to interact with it. That is because the already fun game can now be experienced by players who’d be more comfortable with Japanese.

Players Request More Helldivers 2 Languages and Encourage Cultural Diversity

As stated earlier, the players in Helldivers 2 are bound by their quest for liberty and their vow to protect and ensure that democracy is spread everywhere. This is the spirit of the game, and even the Super Earth in-game is supposed to include all humanity.

Considering the above, a player suggested something that would be immensely fun to experience in Helldivers 2. Other Helldivers agreed upon this and hence became the top comment on the post.

Players responded to this positively while understanding that it would introduce some complexity to the already chaotic title.

It is doubtful that Arrowhead would work on something like this since the company is already buried in work. However, it is evident from the player’s response that this would make for a fine addition to the game.

What do you think of the proposition made by the player to include all languages and allow Helldivers to choose among them? Will it increase chaos and limit teamwork and coordination in Helldivers 2?

Or will it make players feel that every culture has a place on Super Earth? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
