Okay, so the Chicken Zombie isn’t top tier in my Grow A Garden pets list, but it’s still a cool one to try and get. The tricky part? You can’t just earn it by playing the game normally.

You’ve likely noticed it in Helldivers 2: missions appearing on planets labeled as having “no particular strategic value.” It might seem like a minor detail, or even a mistake, but it’s actually a clever piece of storytelling.

In a recent social media post, Okamoto explained that back in 2022, they revealed three Silent Hill projects—Silent Hill 2, Silent Hill F, and Silent Hill: Townfall—all at once. They didn’t want to just announce one remake as a trial run. Instead, they aimed to demonstrate their strong commitment to bringing the series back. Developing both a remake and a brand new game at the same time was risky, but they wanted to show they were serious. Okamoto believes that announcing a new game is the first step in securing a series’ future.
