HELLDIVERS (Steam Gift): for Super-Earth and managed democracy
HELLDIVERS is the original 2015 co-op shooter by Arrowhead Game Studios, published by Sony. This is the FIRST game in the series: a top-down twin-stick action title, not Helldivers 2. You join the ranks of the elite Helldivers and drop onto hostile planets to spread "managed democracy" across the galaxy in the name of Super-Earth.
The signature feature of HELLDIVERS is merciless friendly fire. Your stratagems, orbital strikes and turrets hit everyone indiscriminately, so a single careless burst can wipe out a teammate. That turns every mission into a tense, funny and deeply cooperative grind where coordination beats raw reflexes.
The satire worth coming back to the first game for
The HELLDIVERS universe is sharp satire on militarism and propaganda. Bombastic clips about "managed democracy", the Super-Earth cult and pompous callsigns are played so straight that it's clearly poking fun at you. The first game set this whole tone that later became world famous, so playing the original is a special treat for series fans and lovers of co-op shooters like DOOM and RAGE 2.
Which editions are available
Pick the edition you need in the tabs above. A quick rundown of each:
HELLDIVERS Dive Harder Edition
The full updated edition of the original game. This is the core HELLDIVERS with all the key content — the best option if you want to jump into the first game and play with friends.
HELLDIVERS Digital Deluxe Edition
An extended edition with extra content on top of the base game. Great for those who want more right away instead of buying add-ons separately.
HELLDIVERS Reinforcements Mega Bundle
This is a bundle of DLC, not a standalone game. It includes additional stratagems, gear and equipment for the Helldivers. To use the bundle, you need the base HELLDIVERS separately — keep that in mind when choosing.
How you get the gift
Delivery goes through a Steam gift from our bot. The bot adds you as a friend, sends the chosen edition as a gift and leaves your friend list. You don't need to accept the friend request manually or confirm anything — the gift arrives automatically.
Steam Guard is not required to receive it. Delivery usually takes a couple of minutes after the order. One important thing: the gift comes for your account region, so the account region equals the gift region, and it's worth checking in advance.
Why the original still holds up
Even years after release HELLDIVERS remains a tight, replayable co-op experience. The galactic war map, the constant escalation of enemy factions and the deep stratagem system give every session its own rhythm. You drop, you call in support, you watch a teammate get flattened by your own orbital strike, and you laugh it off and reinforce. It's the kind of game that rewards a regular squad and turns a quiet evening into a chaotic operation for Super-Earth.
Co-op for two to four divers
HELLDIVERS is built around playing together. Coordinating loadouts, covering each other and timing stratagems is what separates a wiped squad from a clean extraction. If you're gathering friends for a co-op night, this is a great pick to put on the table alongside other action titles in our catalog.
What to check before buying
For the gift to apply smoothly, make sure the chosen game (or bundle) isn't already in your Steam library — a duplicate gift won't be accepted. Also match your account region with the offer region. If you enjoy co-op and fast-paced action, take a look at other titles in the catalog too, such as Returnal.
