Helldivers 2 dev follows in Palworld's footsteps and starts a hiring spree to keep up with player demand

Helldivers 2's developer has announced an upcoming hiring spree to keep up with the game's demand, just like Palworld's studio did last week. 

On February 14, Arrowhead Game Studios released Patch 01.000.006 to both PC and PS5 which focuses on the third-person shooter's general stability, Defend Events, and matchmaking. You can read the full patch notes via Steam, but the general updates include things like crash fixes, improved backend connectivity so that there's less of a chance of players disconnecting in missions, and more. 

Since Helldivers 2's release last week, its developer has run into several issues due to the amount of players trying to access the game at one time. Earlier this week, Helldivers 2 dev doubled the player capacity of its servers but told fans it's "still not enough" to meet the demand. Although work is still being done, the team needs even more hands on deck to keep up with the game's popularity.
