The game is blowing up (again) after arriving on Xbox Series X|S.

Helldivers 2 has topped over half a million concurrent players, leading Arrowhead Studios CEO Shams Jorjani to revisit a joke that turned into a meme. VideoGamer reports that Jorjani asked players on Discord to "stop sh*tting your pants" while sharing that 500,490 people were playing the third-person shooter. As Helldivers 2 finally landed on Xbox, Gears of War: Reloaded launched on PS5--bringing chainsaw guns and the Locust to PlayStation for the first time in nearly 20 years of the franchise.
