Helldivers 2 has been around for a while now and it just keeps killing. The reports show that it has been successful in terms of concurrent players and sales figures, even though more than two months have passed since its release. That said, folks are rewarded with new additions by Arrowhead Game Studios thanks to their dedication to spreading democracy.
One of the latest additions to the game is the Democratic Detonation expansion. For those unfamiliar, this is the third Premium Warbond available for 1,000 Super Credits. This explosive new addition introduces exciting new toys, such as the CB-9 Exploding Crossbow. Players who’ve tried this primary weapon for the first time have found it quite impressive.

The CB-9 Exploding Crossbow, which comes with the Democratic Detonation Premium Warbond, has been in use since April 11, and it explodes bolts that do maximum damage upon direct impact.

Folks who experienced the weapon generally liked it, and many players even said that they would die many times due to this weapon. The in-game synopsis describes CB-9 Exploding Crossbow as::
”Fires powerful exploding bolts which do maximum damage upon direct impact. Gravity must be accounted for when aiming.”

What is the Latest Status of Helldivers 2?
The February release of Helldivers 2 is a work of madness. You heard right; It sold nearly 1 million units in the first three days after its launch and showed almost no flaws. New content added to the game also ensured that it constantly remained at the top of the list.
Helldivers 2 May Just be the Most High Octane, Cinematic and Balls-to-the-Wall Video Games Out There
With the latest reports revealed in March, it is estimated that the game’s all-time sales are 8 million copies and this is increasing every week. That said, the title ranks fourth on the most played list on Steam with 200K concurrent players. Also, the 24-hour peak was 253K, and the all-time peak was 458K.
Not only on Steam, but the game also made its mark on the list of most downloaded PlayStation games shared monthly by Sony. It became the most popular title on PS5 regardless of the US/Canada and EU regions, leaving its strong rivals EA SPORTS FC 24, Dragon’s Dogma 2, MLB The Show 24, and WWE 2K24 behind.
Helldivers 2 looks like it will continue to rock the charts for a long time. However, the response to the demands of the players is one of the most important factors that will ensure the preservation and even increase of the player base. Otherwise, there may be a sudden loss of interest, which may cause the game to lose its popularity.
