Helldivers 2 – Cutting Edge Premium Warbond is Now Available

Helldivers 2 players are currently enjoying the Ballistic Shield, which received several buffs in the recent update. The Ballistic Shield in Helldivers 2, as its name implies, is a defense gear that protects the wielder from incoming attacks. This stratagem blocks regular laser shots from the front, but it's unable to withstand many explosive attacks. Players can unlock the Ballistic Shield with 6,000 Requisition Slips after reaching level 12.

Helldivers 2 is honoring fallen players during the battle for Malevelon Creek by issuing free capes to all players and marking April 3 as a special in-game holiday. After launching in February, Helldivers 2 has become a massive success for both Sony and Arrowhead Game Studios, knocking over many sales milestones and achieving player population numbers despite numerous issues through the first few weeks of the game's release. While the game offers plenty of emergent and dynamic moments through gameplay, part of the appeal is the constant flow of content and activities, which keeps the game feeling fresh.

The latest update for Helldivers 2 has sneakily added new enemies, including four-legged colossal machines. Recently, Helldivers 2 released its second major update, bringing several gameplay modifiers and bumping up the level cap from 50 to 150. The top-down shooter game has introduced balance changes, including the SG-8S Slugger shotgun nerf, which has sparked debate among players.

Some Helldivers 2 players are unhappy with recent changes to the Slugger weapon brought about by the game's latest update. The new Helldivers 2 patch brought some new features and balancing changes to the game's growing arsenal of weapons, once again shifting the debate over which tools are the best.

Arrowhead Game Studios’ latest patch for Helldivers 2 went live with some hefty changes, like increasing the level cap to 150, balancing several weapons and even adding blizzards and sandstorms. However, it also brought some undocumented new enemies, specifically to the Automaton faction.

After suffering a recent, but narrow major order defeat, Helldivers 2 players are asking developer Arrowhead Game Studios to implement a way to see supply lines between planets. Part of the appeal of Helldivers 2, outside of the chaotic nature of missions where unplanned events can take place, is the game's living world. As players take on missions, they directly influence the galactic war by liberating planets, or on occassion, losing them to the enemy factions as well. This push and pull aspect keeps the game feeling fresh and dynamic, as the global map is constantly changing as progress is made or lost.

Helldivers 2 has been nothing short of a revelation, having enjoyed critical and commercial success to degrees that even Sony or developer Arrowhead Game Studios would have dreamt. But even with all of its success, has it become one of PlayStation’s bigger properties? Johan Pilested – CEO of Arrowhead and director of Helldivers 2 – certainly hopes to see it get to that level one day.

There's been a lot of chatter about this Stellar Blade demo recently. First, it was released accidentally, and although Sony took it back down pretty quickly, it wasn't fast enough to stop a few people playing and sharing footage online. So, we knew a demo was coming, and it wasn't much later that we got official confirmation. Now, the time has come: it's available to download and play right now on PS5. Those in the US can click here, and it's here for UK readers.

A smart Helldivers 2 player online has discovered an interesting way to use the new LAS-99 Quasar Cannon Stratagem, which could make completing some Automaton objectives much easier. While Helldivers 2 offers a wide arsenal of weapons to complete objectives, this new addition could be among the most useful.

With the new Major Order to take down the Automatons in Helldivers 2, which players generally feel disdain for, it seems about right to receive some new armaments. Arrowhead Game Studios has confirmed the addition of two new weapons – the LAS-99 Quasar Cannon and the MG-101 Heavy Machine Gun.

Arrowhead Game Studios has released a new patch for Helldivers 2, and though it only contains one fix, it’s pretty essential. Patch 1.000.104 ensures your game no longer freezes upon using Arc-based weapons and Stratagems.

Helldivers 2 has dropped two brand-new Stratagems in the game, giving players a couple of new options to help gamers fight off the Terminid and Automaton hordes on the battlefield. While Helldivers 2 already features plenty of ways to take down enemies, every bit of support helps.
