You can now relocate your whole castle base in . This is a great means of lowering travel times when gathering materials or hunting enemies. Some castle locations are more defensible, which is useful during PvP server raid times.

For all you democracy dealers out there, a brand new Warbond is soon to join Helldivers 2, giving you yet more rewards to earn. Launching on 9th May, Polar Patriots is its name, and this snowy-themed Warbond is frozen over with cool new stuff.
It includes three new primary weapons — the AR-61 Tenderizer, SMG-72 Pummeler, and PLAS-101 Purifier, each of which can be seen in the above trailer. You'll also be able to spend those medals on a new incendiary grenade, the Motivational Shocks utility item — which shocks players back to normal after being slowed by enemy attacks — and secondary weapon, the P-113 Verdict. On top of all that, there are three new armour sets, player banners, capes, and emotes to unlock.
Premium Warbonds can be unlocked by spending 1,000 Super Credits — a premium currency you can either purchase or, if you play enough, earn plenty of in-game.

Nice. I think I have enough points in PS Stars to pick up the currency for this too.
Perfeito.
Looking at those snow boots, it'd be good to see if they positively affected stamina/mobility when trudging through the snow or sand drifts.
Does anyone know what will happen to past warbonds? Will they just always be there or will the disappear over time? I still have so much to unlock in all the different warbonds.
@Jill_Sandwich There's no time limit on Warbonds, they're all there permanently, so no pressure.
Time to start saving my medals. Would be awesome if they added traits/stats to the helmets and capes. I think they're going to announce the next enemy faction during the rumored showcase.
Great news, I saw the leak yesterday and hoped it was true, I quite like the snow trooper vibe and it would be nice to get a new 'viable' side arm!
@Quintumply do you know what the Motivational shocks booster is about?
@Mostik I've just added a little bit about it. From the PS Blog: «Literally shocks Helldivers back into action after being hit and slowed by sneaky, unjust attacks like the revolting bug acid vomit. Won’t help you much with area effects like EMS strikes, though.»
Now all they need is helmets to have sort of armour effect. I've missed the snow planets, I got fed up of being killed by random fire tornados.
@Quintumply Excellent,

It can be difficult for developers to maintain live service titles these days, with fans expecting more and more content each month to avoid the risk of being labeled a "dead game." Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has been treading that particular tightrope rather well since launch, delivering new armor, weapons, and emotes via the Premium Warbonds system that has been serving them well up until now.
Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has released the Polar Patriots Premium Warbond as planned after the boss of the studio polled fans on whether it should go ahead so soon after what he called “negative sentiment” over the game’s PlayStation Network account linking.
Arrowhead Games appears to be settling into a roughly monthly cadence when it comes to Helldivers 2’s Warbonds, its version of no FOMO battle passes.
A new Helldivers 2 update is on the way, this time with the newly announced Polar Patriots Warband releasing on May 9. This content update brings a plethora of new items and weapons into the fold for use in missions in Helldivers 2, as well as a ton of new customization options.
Helldivers 2’s latest premium Warbond has been revealed
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.
Helldivers 2 oddly requires that I spend its in-game currency on items I don't want (capes, helmets, any emote other than the hug) just so I can gain access to the items I do (sniper rifles, SMGs, other weapons that ultimately turn out to be worse than what I already had).
Star Wars and Fortnite have always enjoyed a fruitful partnership, but now Disney’s put its sizeable bank balance behind Epic Games, there was always the possibility of a greater collaboration. And after weeks of teasing, that’s exactly what’s been announced. Beginning from 3rd May, the eve of Star Wars Day, you can expect an epic collaboration with George Lucas’ sci-fi series which will extend to virtually all aspects of the culturally colossal video game platform.
Helldivers 2's latest patch, 01.000.300, dropped yesterday. It introduced sweeping balancing changes to the game and announced in-universe that the previously placid Terminids had broken free of their humane enclosures. While these once-captive sources of E-710 (which Socialists will suggest is just «oil» spelt backwards) run rampant, the Helldivers community debates whether developer Arrowhead may have introduced a fun nerf.
You're either utterly obsessed with Funko Pops or you can't stand the sight of them, and there's no in-between. As such, newly announced PS5, PS4 game Funko Fusion is already facing an uphill battle with some console owners. Using what appears to be a similar structure and approach to the LEGO games, this is a title playable alone or in four-player online co-op, and it's out on 13th September 2024. Check it out in the above reveal trailer.
Arrowhead Game Studios has announced the next Premium Warbond for Helldivers 2 – Polar Patriots. Going live on May 9th, it offers armor sets for cold climates alongside new weapons, emotes, capes and more. Check out the trailer below.
