After Sony reversed its decision requiring Helldivers 2 PC players to link with PlayStation Network, the game's community initiated "Operation Clean Up" to improve its Steam review scores. The campaign, motivated by a dramatic drop from 'overwhelmingly positive' to 'mostly negative' due to over 200,000 negative reviews, encourages players to post positive reviews. Since the start of the initiative, 72,000 positive reviews have been submitted, boosting the game’s rating to 'mixed' for recent reviews and 'mostly positive' overall.
