  • Under 75k
  • 75k to 125k
  • 125k to 175k
  • 175k to 225k
  • 225k to 275k
  • Over 275k

i think it will be around 150k if the MO is cool enough aroud this time.

It'll probably be 125k-175k on launch and the taper from there.

Happy to report that at around 10:30 EST, on a work day, there were about ~200k divers on the map

Kinda insane, wonder whats it's gonna look like after 5

Thank you for your intel report, helldiver. Hopefully, all these recruits will help us bring swift justice to these tyrants of unjust on September 2nd.

Where can someone see a shared total user count Right now?

I know how to check steam, which if course doesn't include PS5 and won't include Xbox.

Usually, you can find it in-game. Or use helldiverscompanion website > high command overview, when you are not spreading managed democracy.

I guess I can figure out how many non-steam players are playing by comparing the steam count to the total count, unless there is a way to see the breakdown of the total that I'm missing.

  • HD2 Companion total: ~36,000
  • Steamdb total: ~28,000
  • PS5 must be ~8,000

Hoping for a breakdown in one place and that I'm just missing an option somewhere.

I believe that's the best way to calculate it.
