Arrowhead Games Sets Sights on Becoming the Next Major Player in the Gaming Industry

The massive success of Helldivers 2 has taken the gaming world by storm, with the co-op third-person shooter selling 12 million copies in just three months. This unexpected phenomenon has left developer Arrowhead Games reeling, but also filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation for what's to come. According to Johan Pilestedt, the company's chief creative officer, the key to Helldivers 2's success lies in its unique blend of elements, including its systematic nature, live service features, and stunning visuals. However, Pilestedt believes that the game's true strength lies in its ability to break away from the norm and offer something fresh and innovative. The game's success has been a dream come true for Pilestedt, who has always wanted to create games that push the boundaries of what is possible. With the appointment of Shams Jorjani as CEO, Arrowhead Games is now poised to take on new challenges and pursue its ambition of becoming a leading player in the gaming industry, rivaling the likes of From Software and Blizzard. As the company looks to the future, it is clear that its focus will be on creating games that are true to its vision and values, rather than simply chasing monetary gain. With a strong leadership team in place and a clear sense of direction, Arrowhead Games is ready to take on the next chapter in its journey and make its mark on the gaming world.
