WAR rages across the galaxy!
Our brave men and women in the Helldivers are meeting the enemies of Super Earth in fierce combat, bravely giving their lives to the cause of freedom for all Super Earthlings. Are you going to sit idly by while Bugs crawl their way to your family? While filthy socialist Cyborgs threaten your way of life? While Illuminates act all high and mighty with their hyper-advanced technology in your galaxy?
Of course you won't! Because you're going to join the Helldivers, and drop in on the front lines of a war that will ensure that everything all of Super Earth holds dear is defended.

Helldivers is a cooperative top-down shooter for Playstation 4, Playstation 3, and PS Vita. It's cross-buy and cross-play. It's developed by Arrowhead games, the fine folks responsible for Magicka.
In it, you take on the roles of Helldivers, elite tactical soldiers who drop in on enemy planets and secure various objectives, finishing each mission with extraction via shuttle.
There's a large emphasis put on teamwork, as it's very unforgiving at times, up to and including friendly fire. So watch your aim!
There's also a really interesting metagaming aspect to it, as every successful mission completed contributes to the overall galactic war, up to and including wiping the enemy factions out at their homebase for good (or at least, until the next war breaks out).
Here's some more gameplay!
