The Helldivers 2 CEO Johan Pilestedt has revealed the origin of Arrowhead Game Studios and why the game is called Helldivers.

If just three months ago you heard the names ‘Arrowhead Game Studios’ and ‘Helldivers’ there is a good chance they would mean nothing to you. But, after the meteoric rise of Helldivers 2, which has gone on to become one of the biggest PlayStation games of all time, selling 12 million copies in three months, beating out games such as God of War Ragnarok.

Now, the name stands as a reminder of our student beginnings, when we were five people in a small room on LTU campus. Even the logo hasn’t changed much since then. We’re still chasing the same dream: to change the games industry with the power of fantasy-first co-op games.” When it comes to creating the name Helldivers, Arrowhead Game Studios combined two common phrases when describing war to create the name and it suits the game perfectly.
