There is something funny about the modern cooperative games: they are all rainbows and unicorns in terms of the interaction between players. Friendly fire is a thing of the past and everyone just plays alongside each other. That won’t be the case with Helldivers on the various PlayStation platforms. This is true cooperative play, we’re your success depends on you watching the backs of your fellow soldiers and one wrong bullet can take them out as easily as it can an enemy.
The game looks like one that is truly for the hardcore. It can be incredibly difficult and working alongside your team and being mindful of them is the key to survival. The game will support Cross Buy for all versions, meaning one purchase nets you a copy for the PS3, PS4 and the Vita, plus you can play alongside other players across platforms.
You can check out the launch trailer for the game below and look forward to picking up the game when it launches on the PlayStation Network Store tomorrow evening.
