Crossovers are the clashing of worlds between two or more franchises and fans just deciphered a cryptic post that seemingly hints at a collaboration withDeep Rock Galactic.
Helldivers 2 Crossover With Deep Rock Galactic Is Seemingly Imminent
Arrowhead Studios is known for the cheerful and approachable vibe the developers have with members of the community on social media and how friendly the company can be to fellow developers likeRemedy Entertainment. The company just posted a binary code and it didn’t take long for fans to crack it.
Helldivers 2 main account casually posts the following binary and then deletes it.
It translates to “Where is Karl?”
Is this a freaking Deep Rock Galactic crossover?

It turns out the binary code translated to “Where is Karl?”, and players ofDeep Rock Galacticare well aware of who this character is. Perhaps this could all be fun and games between two developers and a publicity stunt, or it could be something else entirely.

Moments like these can rattle some cages and generate some hype over something that isn’t there. There is still a possibility that Arrowhead Studios and Ghost Ship Games are working on something that is being kept under wraps, but it is all speculation up to this point.

Bringing together different pieces of popular media can have some positive fruit to bear, other live service games likeCall of DutyandFortnitehave all reaped the benefits of collaborating with popular franchises. This will often boost the player count, and perhapsHelldivers 2can do something like it down the line.
One Cryptic Post Could Lead To An Epic Crossover
One of the many benefits of social media is that it provides a platform for discussions, speculations, and theories about various topics. This includes the possibility of collaborations between two game studios, Arrowhead Studios and Ghost Ship Games.

At the moment, it’s unclear whether a crossover project between the two studios is on the horizon. However, it’s plausible that both studios are currently monitoring the level of interest and hype generated by their fans before making any decisions.
The process of “testing the waters” is a common practice in the gaming industry, where developers assess the feasibility of a project before proceeding with it. In this case, the studios may be examining whether there is enough demand and enthusiasm among their followers to justify investing time and resources in a potential crossover.
Both games do belong to the same genre and the gameplay is relatively similar. Perhaps aDeep Rock Galactic-inspired stratagem could make its way to future content updates forHelldivers 2or maybe an upcoming event that could bridge both franchises together.
