Helldivers 2 developer gets new CEO, plans to remain an independent studio


Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has a new CEO.

Earlier today, it was announced that Shams Jorjani - who was previously part of the team that published Arrowhead's game, Magicka - will take over the leadership role at the company, replacing founder Johan Pilestedt. "The oblivious approach of 'we'll take one step at a time, and then we will solve the issues as they come'," Pilestedt said, adding the "strength of Arrowhead is the camaraderie that we share amongst the team, and the desire to help each other".
