Helldivers 2 is a cooperative game at heart – but how many players can you have on your team? Here’s everything you need to know about the Helldivers 2 multiplayer party size.

Just like its predecessor, Helldivers 2 is all about collaboration, after all, most players won’t want to battle an enemy as tough as these on their own. Even one look at some of the bugs and fans will think they need an army to take them down – or at least a few powerful weapons.

Unfortunately, you can’t have an army in Helldivers 2, as there is a strict party size limit, and it would get pretty busy on the battlefield, even if it is on a planet.

So, what is the maximum amount of players you can fight with in Helldivers 2? Here’s everything you need to know about the game’s multiplayer party size.

Helldivers 2’s maximum multiplayer party size is four, meaning the game will support a team comprised of you and three of your friends.

Naturally, you can play the game with a smaller group of people, as it does support duo, trios, or even solo play. However, the game will be easier if you’re playing it with a full team, so it’s worth trying to gather people if you want an easier experience.
