There are plenty of interesting planets you’ll be visiting during missions in the game but will you be able to fully explore each environment? If you’re curious about how much you can navigate in Helldivers 2, we’ve got everything you need to know about whether it’s open world or not right here.

Is Helldivers 2 an open-world game?
No, Helldivers 2 isn’t an open-world game. Instead, players will be dropped just outside the specific battle situation and will have to head into the fight themselves.
So, while you do get a smaller world to fight in, you can’t explore the entire planet for yourself and will be restricted to the fight at hand. This is relatively similar to how it was with the original Helldivers so fans of the first game will know what to expect.
