Douse Bugs in Noxious Gas: Helldivers 2's Crazy New Warbond

Sep 12, 2024 3:14 PM

Helldivers 2 is set to introduce its next Warbond, titled "Chemical Agents", on September 19, allowing players to engage in galactic pest control by using noxious gas against enemies and even a fart emote for comedic relief. This follows a recent community outcry over previous nerfs, with a patch set for September 17 addressing balance issues. The Chemical Agents Warbond introduces new gear, including the TX-41 Sterilizer and AX/TX-13 'Guard Dog' Dog Breath, alongside utility weapons like the P-11 Stim Pistol to heal allies remotely. Armor options like the AF-50 Noxious Ranger provide protection and immunity against toxic gas. Players can expect the offbeat yet engaging element of humor with a fart emote included in the bundle.

What new features will the Chemical Agents Warbond add to Helldivers 2?

The Chemical Agents Warbond will introduce new stratagems such as the TX-41 Sterilizer for dousing enemies in toxic gas and the AX/TX-13 'Guard Dog' which uses a drone to assist in crowd control. Additionally, new utility weapons and armor that provide immunities are also included, enhancing the gameplay experience with variety and humor.

Helldivers 2 is a cooperative shooter developed by Arrowhead Game Studios, known for its blend of humor and intense gameplay. The game builds on the original Helldivers, where players work together to tackle challenging missions while combating alien threats all across the galaxy. With its whimsical and often over-the-top approach to gameplay, Helldivers 2 continues to evolve, introducing new content that keeps the community engaged and entertained.
