Helldivers 2 Squad Size Update: Expansion Unlikely for Now, Melee Weapons a Possibility

Helldivers 2, the highly acclaimed multiplayer shooter, may not be expanding its squad size beyond four players anytime soon. According to the Arrowhead community manager, Twinbeard, the addition of larger squads would require significant development work and is not currently on the table. However, the team is exploring the possibility of adding melee weapons to the game. Additionally, Arrowhead is working on several updates and bug fixes, including a list of known issues that are being addressed.

Euro 2024 Squads Expanded to 26 Players

UEFA has reversed its decision to reduce tournament squads to 23 players. Instead, teams will be able to select a 26-man roster for Euro 2024, which will be held in Munich. This change was made in response to pressure from national team coaches who cited the high number of injuries this season. It also ensures that all 15 players not selected in the starting XI will be able to sit on the bench, as was the case at the 2022 World Cup. While FIFA may revert to 23-man squads for the 2026 World Cup, it is likely that the larger squads will become the norm for UEFA competitions.
