Helldivers 2 inherited most things that made the original game a hit, intense cooperative missions, a wide variety of weapons and stratagems, and even chaotic battles against various alien enemies.

However, it added new environments, new weapons, and even new missions that not only made the gameplay experience better but also created fresh scenarios for players to liberate many planets.

As time passes and new updates are rolled out, players are voicing their concerns and desire for content that is not repetitive. Simply put, they don’t want tasks to include just using a new stratagem, they want a new type of mission.

After liberating countless planets for Super Earth and spreading democracy, players are hungry for new types of missions that challenge them with more than just diverse enemies.
