Don't expect a Helldivers 2 update today, Arrowhead confirms, as it continues to work "tirelessly" on its 60-day action plan to improve the third-person shooter

Helldivers 2 Escalation of Freedom.

As Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead continues to work "tirelessly" on its 60-day action plan to improve the third-person shooter, the studio has confirmed that it's altering the frequency of its updates in the meantime, delaying one that fans may have expected to roll out today.

The big 60-day plan was announced last month by game director Michael Eriksson, following the release of the controversial Escalation of Freedom update, which brought big nerfs to the likes of flamethrowers in a move that didn't seem to go down well with anyone. In response, the plan will see that the team continues to "re-examine our approach to balance," as well as "improve game performance," prioritize fixing "gameplay-impacting bugs," prevent "excessive ragdolling," and more.
