Helldivers 2 has arrived with a blast, and it seems like the action-packed gameplay has been reminding Star Wars fans of all that the game really is. Fast-paced shooting, jetpacks, helmets, and tactical capes may give you an idea of how cool things can be in this game.
But, one player has taken this to new horizons and reminded the community of how the game resembles The Mandalorian in so many ways.
The gameplay clip on Twitter/X showcases an impressive set of skills combined with cinematic-esque sequences that might just make it to the next Star Wars spin-off video game fans have been wanting to happen for a long time. It looks like the game is ready to attract a player base that spans across a galaxy far, far away.
A big monster, a jetpack, and lots of bullets
Twitter/X user, ashengreatsword, recently shared a clip that looks like a scene straight out of The Mandalorian. From the huge sandy landscape to a monster ready to take the player’s life; it appears the game sets the optimal setting for anyone willing to play as a beloved class of character from the Star Wars universe.
Furthermore, the gameplay creates the exact feeling one might have in a battle between life and death on a distant planet in third-person perspective.

The wonderful score playing in the background. The voice lines match the action’s vibe. The jetpack and arsenal have the player’s back. Who wouldn’t believe that this is something right from the final moments of an episode of The Mandalorian?
The more Helldivers 2 players share their gameplay, the more it becomes evident that the game is setting a perfect landscape for a Star Wars title to take place.
Preferably one where we get to fly around with a jetpack, protecting a kid who shows potential to be the next best Jedi.
Helldivers 2 is attracting all kinds of players
Released just a few days ago, Helldivers 2 is quickly rising up the review ladders on Steam. With more than 25,000 reviews, the ‘Very Positive’ tag is working wonders for the game, with over 100k players active at the time of writing.
To those who aren’t aware of what’s really going on in the game, it comes with a clear philosophy:
Freedom. Peace. Democracy.
Your Super Earth-born rights. The key pillars of our civilization.
Of our very existence.
If fighting several types of enemies with your favorite gun as you look cool doing it is something you enjoy, the game’s right up your alley. And, of course, if you’re a fan of The Mandalorian.
Even if you’re not familiar with either of the franchises, there’s a lot for fans of third-person shooters to look forward to here.
