Over the weekend, Pilestedt posted a cropped image seemingly teasing an official new Helldivers 2 cape design, which notably included three red lines bearing a suspicious resemblance to Helldivers 2’s now legendary Steam review slump graph.
But now that drama is starting to subside following a dramatic U-turn, all thoughts have turned to one thing: was the review bomb cape developer Arrowhead’s CEO Johan Pilestedt previously hinted at real?
It just wasn’t entirely clear to what degree he was joking.
And it turns out he (probably) wasn’t joking at all.
