Alone in the Galaxy: Leaving Groups in Helldivers 2

This article will be discussing how to leave groups in Helldivers 2

Released on February 8, Helldivers 2 quickly became a part of every gamer’s Steam library thanks to its satisfying gunplay and focus on co-op features. And with every co-op game, it’s best enjoyed with your friends and loved ones, with Helldivers 2 not making an exception.

If all of your friends are busy, then Helldivers will have the option of queuing up with random players and teammates. And while that’s a great alternative, the problem arises when your teammates end up being under-performers, frustratingly non-cooperative or toxic.

It’s an issue most players face in multiplayer games, and sometimes it’s best to just leave the toxicity behind and leave the party. But can you do the same in Helldivers 2? That’s what we’ll be discussing so let’s get to it.

Can You Leave Groups in Helldivers 2?

The short answer is that there’s currently no way to leave parties in Helldivers 2, which is a bit weird since you can leave a party when joining someone else’s ship. This suggests the possibility that the devs will add a feature for leaving every type of group in a later update.

Players have been talking about this issue ever since it came out, especially since people have to resort to kicking players out of the party. It’s needless to say that this method is rude and disrespectful to other players so we hope the devs implement a similar feature sooner rather than later.

Another option that players have resorted to is closing the game entirely. While that’s a viable option, it doesn’t make sense to have such a roundabout work-around for pressing a button to leave the party. Either way, if you’re unhappy with the state of your team or you simply have something that’s forcing you to go AFK, your options are either to kick everyone out of your party or closing the game entirely.

That concludes our short article for the question that people have been asking: Can you leave a party in Helldivers 2? While the answer is no, we hope this provided some clarity to newly joined players.
