A Helldivers 2 counterpart is in development for Xbox and PC. Halo Infinite fans showcased Helljumpers

Halo Infinite’s creative tools are being used to build a game that captures the spirit of Helldivers 2.

Helldivers 2 became a pleasant discovery for many players. Some Halo fans believe that 343 Industries could have created a similar project within the franchise.

However, that never happened, so enthusiasts decided to make use of the available tools in Halo Infinite. Thanks to the Forge creative mode, players can build maps and game modes within the game.

The fan project was given a name reminiscent of Helldivers 2 — Helljumpers. Due to the specifics of the implementation, it is not possible to carry over progress between sessions, so this mode represents something of a short campaign featuring several missions (expected completion time is 3–5 hours).

The enthusiasts offer their own stratagems in Helljumpers, meaning players will have the chance to assemble improvised builds for their characters.

The release date for Helljumpers has not yet been announced. It is expected to be shared in early October during the Halo World Championship 2024 event.
