Helldivers 2 is set to receive a new warbond next week, featuring an explosive array of weapons that promise to shake up gameplay. The ‘Democratic Detonation Premium Warbond’ adds the BR-14 Adjudicator Rifle, R-36 Eruptor Rifle, and CB-9 Exploding Crossbow to the Helldivers’ arsenal. These weapons will bring new dynamics to securing planets, with the Adjudicator Rifle piercing enemy armor, the Eruptor scattering shrapnel, and the Exploding Crossbow living up to its name. Also included are sticky thermite grenades, a grenade pistol for sidearms, and the Expert Extraction Pilot Booster to hasten extraction times.
Players can also look forward to three new armor sets—CE-07 Demolition Specialist, CE-27 Ground Breaker, and FS-55 Devastator—each varying in weight and offering different advantages. New capes to complement these armors will also be available. Details on these items can be found in a PlayStation blog post and a YouTube short from PlayStation Access. The update, available from April 11, follows recent balancing tweaks brought by the latest patch.
