As Helldivers 2 Automatons tear through the galaxy, players get new Warbond and big Ship Module upgrades to even the odds

Helldivers 2.

What you need to know

  • Earlier this week, Helldivers 2's Automaton faction returned to the Galactic War following what was thought to be their ultimate defeat over the weekend. A massive invasion fleet is currently tearing through the northwestern sectors of the galaxy, and so far, attempts to defend against it have gone poorly.
  • To help even the odds, developer Arrowhead has released new Ship Module upgrades alongside the Democratic Detonation Warbond that came out on Thursday morning.
  • The Level 4 Ship Modules make supplying support weapons with ammo easier, buff Eagle air support, give the Flamethrower a huge DPS increase, tighten the spread of orbital high-explosive barrages, and more.
  • Note that you'll need Super Samples to unlock these enhancements, which means you'll need to find and extract with them in Difficulty 7-9 missions to get the upgrades.
