Helldivers 2: Truth Enforcers Warbond – A New Arsenal Arrives October 31st
Arrowhead Studios and Sony Interactive Entertainment are gearing up to release the Truth Enforcers Warbond, a premium content pack for Helldivers 2, on October 31st, 2024. This isn't just a cosmetic update; it's a substantial arsenal expansion, empowering players to become Super Earth's elite Truth Enforcers.
Become a Truth Enforcer
Warbonds in Helldivers 2 operate similarly to battle passes, using earned Medals to unlock content. Unlike typical battle passes, these are permanent unlocks. The Truth Enforcers Warbond, available for 1,000 Super Credits in the Destroyer ship's Acquisitions Center, offers a wealth of new weaponry and armor.
New Weapons and Gear
The Warbond delivers powerful new tools for the fight:
- PLAS-15 Loyalist Plasma Pistol: A versatile sidearm with semi-automatic and charged shot modes.
- SMG-32 Reprimand: A rapid-fire submachine gun perfect for close-quarters combat.
- SG-20 Halt: A shotgun capable of switching between stun and armor-piercing rounds.
- UF-16 Inspector Armor: Sleek, light armor with red accents and the "Proof of Faultless Virtue" cape. Features the Unflinching perk.
- UF-50 Bloodhound Armor: Medium armor, also with red accents and the "Pride of the Whistleblower" cape. Features the Unflinching perk.
Beyond the core equipment, expect new banners, cosmetic patterns for your hellpods, exosuits, and Pelican-1, and even a new "At Ease" emote.
Dead Sprint Booster – High Risk, High Reward
The Warbond also introduces the Dead Sprint booster, allowing continued sprinting and diving even after stamina depletion, at the cost of health. A risky but potentially game-changing addition.
The Future of Helldivers 2
Despite a successful launch with a peak of 458,709 concurrent Steam players (excluding PS5 players), Helldivers 2's player base has seen a decline, largely due to initial regional access restrictions. While the concurrent player count on Steam is currently below 40,000, the Truth Enforcers Warbond aims to reignite interest and bring players back to the fight.
Will this new Warbond revitalize the game? Only time will tell, but the content looks promising. Get ready to enforce the truth on October 31st!
