Arrowhead has announced a new premium Warbond for , called "", which will bring new weapons, armor, and more to the game. These Warbonds are often how a large chunk of the game's content is delivered to players, with and launching alongside the game, with and coming in the months that followed.
Each Warbond is themed, with the Warbond introducing prototype weapons directly from Super Earth's Research & Development department which specializes in lighting, plasma, and laser armaments, such as the SG-8P Punisher plasma shotgun pr the ARC-12 Blitzer, and the Warbond focusing more on explosive weapons such as the shrapnel-firing R-36 Eruptor Rifle or the CB-9 Exploding Crossbow. The new Warbond continues this trend with arctic-themed armor at the forefront, alongside new trap-laying weapons.
As revealed in a post, the Warbond will be available in for both PS5 and PC on May 9. While a cost has yet to be revealed, based on the previous Warbonds, is expected to cost 1,000 Super Credits at launch, which is roughly equivalent to $10, andcan be bought in the Acquisition Centre Superstore. For those who don't want to spend real-world money, Super Credits are also offered through side missions which may include destroying different buildings or defending certain zones.
Those who purchase the Premium Warbond will be able to even more Super Credits through the Battle Pass system.
Some of the primary attractions in the 's Warbond are three new armor sets, each with their own passive boosts to suit different playstyles.
The CW-36 Winter Warrior armor is designed to blend into snowy environments with perfect camouflage with a Servo-assisted passive boost, the heavier CW-22 Kodiak has a Fortified passive boost, and the CW-4 Arctic Ranger features a utility belt boasting handy pockets for more items, with the Scout passive boost.
The Warbond will also include 3 Primary Weapons, 1 Secondary Weapon, and a Grenade, and as with all of 's weapons, these have their pros and cons to encourage players to strategize more in battle. The high caliber AR-61 Tenderizer assault rifle dishes out an impressive amount of damage but limited magazine size for instance. Meanwhile, the SMG-72 Pummeler will concuss enemies but will have a slower rate of fire when compared to other SMGs. The PLAS-101 Purifier is designed for those who are patient, as it encourages players to set up a trap for their enemies to fall into, as the longer they hold their trigger, the higher the damage dealt.
As for ' Secondary Weapon, the P-113 Verdict is a gas-operated, semi-automatic lunpistol with the largest centerfire cartridge of its kind for a quick draw that gets the drop on enemies. Lastly, the G-13 Incendiary Impact special grenade detonates on

Sony has officially backed down from forcing all players on Steam to link their account to PlayStation Network after a weekend of boycotts, negative reviews, and mass refunds. Announced shortly before the launch of the game's next season, the switch from an optional to a mandatory PSN account managed to provoke the community after it was discovered that 121 countries around the world would be blocked from playing the game due to the service not being available. Fortunately, Arrowhead Studios and PlayStation have come to a solution that's satisfied the player base.
has made waves as a live-service game that offers the complete package of fun gameplay, an engaging community, and interesting updates, but one move could undo a huge portion of what it's built over the past few months. As a sequel to the modestly popular top-down shooter, the third-person follow-up has managed to go toe-to-toe with major IPs and stands out as one of the biggest successes of 2024. Not everyone has been able to get in on the fun – isn't available on Xbox – but that hasn't slowed its momentum much.
It turns out the attempts to eliminate the bug threat through the use of Terminid Control Systems were entirely fruitless in . Now, it’s up to the Helldivers to deactivate these terminals across several major planets. To prevent the spread of the Terminid and to earn plenty of medals along the way, it’s essential for Helldivers to know how to deactivate the Terminid Control Systems.
A recent update makes dangerous changes to its most feared enemies. Stalkers, members of the Terminid faction, are some of the most dangerous bugs in . Their unique ability allows them to disguise themselves, allowing them to get the jump on players. Stalkers will often appear out of the blue when they're least expected, and if the players don't respond quickly, can wipe out an entire party in a manner of seconds. They're especially difficult to see through thick fog and fire tornadoes, making them even more of a threat during inclement weather.
is making a massive change to its PC version and the community couldn't be more annoyed. Ever since the popular third-person shooter launched on PlayStation 5 and Steam, the game has boasted an enormous player base that's only grown larger as developer Arrowhead Studios has continued to support the game with extensive content patches. Unfortunately, many of those users who have participated in Super Earth's galactic war are disgruntled because of a new requirement that may make it significantly harder to enjoy the game.
Every month brings new games to the Xbox Game Pass service, with the regularly changing roster in Microsoft's subscription offering plenty of titles for different types of players to enjoy. These can be titles from long-running franchises, indie gems, or titles from Microsoft's first-party studios which are added at no extra cost upon their launch, making Game Pass one of the better deals in gaming.
players who enjoy firing massive lasers at their enemies are out of luck because the latest balance update just introduced some major nerfs while also making some interesting tweaks to certain missions. Arrowhead Studios has demonstrated its passion for live-service support by issuing dozens of patches that accomplish small goals like fixing bugs and glitches to introducing larger changes like the addition of new enemies and weapons. While the community wasn't too pleased with the previous balance update, the most recent attempt to level the playing feel is seemingly going down much smoother.
PlayStation owners might be able to get 's latest suits for free at the moment. Unlocking suits has been a huge part of Insomniac Games' Marvel's Spider-Man series and offers a way for players to experience these games as their favorite Spider-Man from the character's six-decade-long history in media. Upon the game's launch, there were 39 available suits for Peter and another 39 for Miles, including the 10 suits from the Digital Deluxe Edition, but since then, Insomniac has added other outfits in patches, such as the Hellfire Gala suits that accompanied the game's New Game Plus update.
Forget the best weapons, armor, and Stratagems — the best thing players can doin is much simpler than all that. Although the core gameplay is all about dishing out damage to Bugs and Bots, there's also a tactical element to , mostly centered on Stratagems. Having the right tools for the job can make all the difference, and many players strive to bring their builds as close to the meta as possible.
recently received some exciting additions to its arsenal of guns with the Democratic Detonation Warbond, but one of the most powerful possibilities isn't obvious without taking an unorthodox approach. Unusual strategies are nothing new for, as the soldiers of Super Earth are constantly seeking out any advantage they can get against the Terminids and Automatons. Any absurd exploits tend to get patched sooner or later, but that's all the more reason to hop on any trick while there's an opportunity to put it into action.
is an incredible game, there's no doubt about that, but one aspect that developer Arrowhead Studios has promised to re-evaluate is the implementation of the «auto-climb» mechanic that has frustrated many since launch. To help facilitate more tactical gameplay without sacrificing too much in the way of speed, incorporates a system that allows players to automatically vault onto or over an obstacle that gets in their way while sprinting. While it works most of the time, when it decides to grow a mind of its own the consequences can be extremely annoying.
may be a game solely committed to boots-on-the-ground combat, but one industrious fan has an incredible vision for how space combat and dogfighting could function. While Arrowhead Studios' third-person shooter is riddled with starships and cruisers, even giving players their own Super Destroyer to travel the pathways between planets, it's not actually possible to use these vessels to battle enemies. It may be too much to expect from the developers, given the scale of such an addition, but some kind of space battle mechanic would be amazing, especially if it takes its cues from this fan's video.
