During the last few weeks, and after rumors of Xbox becoming a third-party publisher, the gaming community, both Xbox and PlayStation, began a pitched battle between the two, only revealing the worst aspects of each person. However, and like something that would only happen in a movie, we have seen something that unifies these two sides, and it is about Helldivers II. Thus, Fans have started a petition to bring the work of Arrowhead Game Studios to the Xbox Series X|S.
After the unexpected success of Helldivers II on PC, Phil Spencer, head of Xbox, revealed that wanted to see this title on the Series X|S, and that limiting the release on PlayStation 5 and PC only affected the reach of this title. Although this could well have started a campaign of contempt on the part of any community, in reality we saw the opposite. PlayStation and Xbox gamers came together to start a Change.org petition to bring this acclaimed title into the hands of all concerned.
At the moment, the request to carry Helldivers II The Xbox Series X|S already has more than 30 thousand signatures. This is what is said about it:
“Helldivers, with its emphasis on teamwork and strategic gameplay, has cultivated a dedicated community that transcends platforms. However, the division between console ecosystems has often hindered this unity. Now, with the prospect of Helldivers 2 gracing the Xbox platform, there is an opportunity to close this gap and foster a more harmonious gaming landscape.
The importance of Helldivers 2 extending its reach to Xbox cannot be understated. It symbolizes a move away from the exclusivity-driven mentality that has fueled the console wars for decades. Instead, it embraces a vision of gaming that celebrates diversity and cross-platform collaboration. By making Helldivers 2 available to Xbox players, PlayStation can take a bold step to dismantle the barriers that have long divided the gaming community.”
