Helldivers 2‘s highly anticipated arrival of mechs has taken a dramatic turn as developer Arrowhead Games announced a critical mission for players. A recent in-game event has disrupted mech production, prompting a call to action for all Helldivers.
This exciting update, dubbed ‘Cutting Edge Warbonds’, coincides with the announcement of new content slated for release on 14 March, and fans are especially ecstatic to continue the fight for democracy in mechs, with some rallying the troops in memory of the late Akira Toriyama.
Mechs Finally Confirmed For Helldivers 2, But That’s Not All
Helldivers 2’s social media channels issued a clear message yesterday: “THIS IS NOT A DRILL.” Evidently, an attack has halted operations at a key manufacturing facility, most likely housing vital mech factories. The location under threat, designated Tien Kwan, remains undisclosed, but its liberation is paramount for the future of mechanized warfare in Helldivers 2.
The Cutting Edge Warbond offers a range of cutting-edge (pun intended) equipment to bolster Helldiver capabilities. Players seeking to elevate their loadouts can now access lightning-based weaponry and experiment with unique armor prototypes.
In a recent PlayStation blog post, Arrowhead Games emphasized the innovative nature of the Cutting Edge Warbond: “Helldivers… we need your assistance. Super Earth Research & Development has developed advanced armor prototypes for field-testing. Your expertise is critical to their success.“
Soldiers eager to test these prototypes can choose from armor featuring a specialized rubber underlay for superior insulation or one that generates a powerful magnetic field. Arrowhead humorously cautions, “Avoid using near stapled paperwork“, highlighting the potentially disruptive nature of the magnetic field.
Players Can’t Wait To Liberate Tien Kwan
Fans on Instagram have responded very positively to the innovatively meta announcement. The prospect of working together as a community to earn mechs has resonated exceptionally well with players.
Today we bring Freedom to tien kwan for Akira Toriyama 🔥
I am genuinely so gutted that I haven’t bought the game and even if I had the game I wouldn’t have time to play it because it seems absolutely epic
Its gonna end up winning game of the year and it only cost 35bucks 😂
Honestly that’s kind of neat how people have to earn [mechs] instead of just [expecting] the update to drop makes everybody work together for a goal kind of miss those events they used to do those in some games back in the early 2010s
FOR DEMOCRACY MY BROTHERS!
The Cutting Edge Warbond significantly expands the Helldiver arsenal. The LAS-16 Sickle laser rifle promises pinpoint precision, while the SG-8P Punisher Plasma offers devastating plasma-fueled firepower. For close-quarters combat, the ARC-12 Blitzer unleashes a potently electrifying attack.
The update further bolsters the arsenal with the G-23 Stun grenade, ideal for disorienting enemy forces, and the LAS-7 Dagger pistol, a reliable sidearm option. Everything you need to serve those invaders a steaming cup of Liber-tea.
The upcoming content addition is a wonderful celebration of one month of Helldivers 2 being on the market. Arrowhead is committed to expanding the game over time with free content updates, as well as reactionary fixes for planetary hazards and weapon balancing.
With the upcoming mech addition, the fight for democracy is only going to get more intense.
