The very active Helldivers 2 community is always proposing ideas for new content, like adding characters from other franchises to the game. In a recent Reddit post, a user proposed to add a very familiar face from the Disney universe to the title; this particular character makes sense of the game’s lore.
This specific character originates from the Wreck It Ralph movie, specifically Sgt. Calhoun, a fictional character from a first-person shooter game where players engage in combat with aliens resembling those from the Arrowhead Game Studios IP.
The Helldivers 2 Community Has Come up With Another Great Idea
After the phenomenal success of the Arrowhead Game Studios title, the Helldivers 2 community continued to grow. The game has sold more than 12 million units since its release in February of this year. One of the best things about this particular IP is its very active community, which is always eager to suggest changes and give feedback to the studio to improve the gaming experience.
A Reddit user posted a picture of Sgt. Calhoun from Wreck it Ralph talking about how this character is literally a Helldiver, because in the movie she is the main character from a game that is about killing aliens in waves.
I want Sgt.Calhoun as my democracy officer.

This particular character should be in the game, according to the user who posted this comparison. Many other users also talked about the possibility of having crossovers for the game.
Helldivers 2 Could Be a Good Time to Think about Collaborations Like Fortnite
As the community responded to this potential collaboration, other users started quoting the movie’s characters, indicating their complete approval of the crossover. The idea of a potential crossover between two worlds that share similar lore and gameplay seems to be well-received by all players. The studio is always open to these kinds of ideas, but at the moment, the game has not revealed any specific collaborations coming.
Other users pointed out that the character’s design doesn’t make sense in the Helldivers 2 world, particularly because the games feature more realistic character models that this kind of collaboration cannot accommodate. The approach for this crossover should be to have a more realistic character that can fit into the model that the game uses to move and shoot. This isn’t as easy as games like Fortnite.
Helldivers 2 continues to make fans happy with a title that offers a co-op experience unlike any other current title, making it possible to enter almost any mission without problems. Fans are waiting for new enemies to appear in the game, with the Automatons and the Terminids almost vanquishing for good. The studio should be thinking about the next big step for the game’s lore with a new and deadly enemy.
