Helldivers 2 has been a little softer on players recently thanks to a batch of updates that saw most weapons getting a buff, which is great for those wanting to expand their arsenal and take advantage of the bevvy of gear Arrowhead has been throwing at its players. Unfortunately, soldier, we ain't at boot camp anymore. Now drop to the floor and give me 20.
The Illuminate, a long-teased faction who were a scourge of the first game, are finally invading Helldivers 2—along with a four-player vehicle, urban environments, and a freakin' stun baton to conk them over the head with, in the Omens of Tyranny update that released today. What's more, they're going to be tough to democratise, according to Arrowhead CCO Johan Pilestedt, who spoke to PC Gamer about the update earlier this week.
