PlayStation has removed the unpopular region locking for some PC games, including Helldivers 2, which might now get a review bomb-themed cape.
Arrowhead CEO Shams Jorjani teased releasing the cape that was withheld due to the region locking issue.
Jorjani announced the potential release on Helldivers 2's Discord server after countries were removed from restricted lists of PlayStation-affiliated PC games.
He stated that the decision to release the cape was a result of PlayStation's actions.
Jorjani encouraged players to reconsider negative reviews due to the region locking changes, mentioning it would be a point of pride for the team.
Many players have adjusted their negative reviews following the region locking rollback.
Jorjani hinted at a possible release of the review bomb cape as a celebration once all regions return.
The cape, based on Steam reviews graph, was a community idea that turned into a campaign once acknowledged by Arrowhead.
A teaser of the cape's design was shared over a year ago by Arrowhead CCO Johan Pilestedt, who confirmed the waiting for the right time to release it.
The potential release of the cape signifies a long-awaited change in response to the region locking saga.
The Helldivers 2 community's enthusiasm for the in-joke design of the cape has fueled the campaign for its official release.
The cape's impending release is expected to be a meaningful moment for players and a fitting conclusion to the region locking controversy.
The region locking rollback has brought optimism among players awaiting the review bomb-themed cape's debut.
The development reflects the studio's commitment to the community and their response to player feedback.
The potential release of the cape is seen as a positive step towards recognizing the players' contributions and supporting a vibrant in-game community.
