Helldivers 2 DLC
Helldivers 2 is consistently updated with balance changes and fresh content, including new weapons and gear. For instance, the Truth Enforcers Warbond released in October 2024 introduced a host of new weapons, armor, cosmetics, and more. Additionally, the Escalation of Freedom update in August 2024 significantly elevated the challenge with a harder difficulty level, more objectives and missions, gameplay adjustments, and new enemies.
Helldivers 2: Omens of Tyranny
The Omens of Tyranny update for Helldivers 2 was shadow-dropped during The Game Awards 2024 and reintroduces the Illuminate faction, an enemy type that has been absent in the series for nearly a century—since the first Helldivers. These adversaries employ mind control to convert citizens into The Voteless, turning them against Super Earth’s democratic ideals. The update also expands the battlefield to urban environments within Super Earth’s colonies, now under siege by the Illuminate.
To counter these threats, a new squad-based transport option arrives with the update: the Fast Recon Vehicle (FRV). This stratagem allows the whole team to traverse the battlefield together, with the added bonus of passengers being able to fire upon enemies while on the move.
A new Warbond system called Urban Legends has been implemented. Unlike traditional time-limited battle passes, this Warbond is not time-restricted and offers new suits, weapons, and gear. Players can unlock these rewards by earning medals during gameplay, with the Warbond available for purchase using in-game currency.
Furthermore, the update included a collaboration event with the Killzone franchise, which offered players the opportunity to acquire exclusive items such as the AC-1 Dutiful Armor and Helmet, StA-52 Assault Rifle, and other themed cosmetics. Some of these items were available for free by logging into the game during the event period, which was extended until December 28th.
