Sony published Helldivers heads to Steam

In what must be seen as a surprising move Helldivers, published by Sony and previously exclusive to PlayStation platforms (PS3, PS4, PS Vita), is heading to PC and Steam in December. This was announced by developer Arrowhead Game Studios.

CEO and game director Johan Pilestedt had this to say (via the press release) on the announcement:

"We are thrilled to be releasing Helldivers: Democracy Strikes Back on PC - our fourth game so far - and for the platform which we first started developing games on.

We have done our very best to ensure that the game will feel as good as possible when played on PC. With a wide range of graphic options, rebindable keys and an added text chat, we hope that we will meet the expectations which players have of a PC title."

The publisher (according to the Steam page) is "PlayStation Mobile, Inc", so apparently Sony are now publishing games on Steam.
