Helldivers 2

Helldivers 2developer Arrowhead Game Studios has quickly rolled back a small patch— intended to smooth out server issues—after it was causing a noticeable performance drop on PC.

The PlayStation 5 patch appears to have gone out some hours ago with seemingly little-to-no problem. There’s currently no word on when the update will be implemented on PC again.
