HELLDIVERS 2

Save location, official requirements and Arrowhead’s fix for GameGuard error 114.

HELLDIVERS 2 uses the nProtect GameGuard anti-cheat system. For error 114, Arrowhead lists checks involving launch permissions and compatibility, reinstalling GameGuard, utility conflicts and security software. Keep protection enabled and review any detection with the security provider or Arrowhead before changing exclusions. Storage listings differ: Steam shows 135 GB minimum and 40 GB recommended, while PlayStation lists 100 GB. Check the current Steam installation or update screen for the space needed; these figures do not establish one universal requirement.
