All week long, the Illuminate of Helldivers 2 has been pushing back hard against the defenders of democracy in deep space. And it looks like their ongoing campaign will reach unprecedented levels of success, as a PlayStation social media account has spilled the beans on the surprising location Helldivers will have to defend in the very near future: the heart of democracy, Super Earth itself.”
Just days after the alien Illuminate began pouring out of the blackhole that players created about a year ago, it seems their ultimate plan to strike the human homeworld will come to fruition imminently. As first pointed out by Reddit user xTekshi, PlayStation’s Czech Republic account shared a post on Threads teasing the next major update for the game, titled “Heart Of Democracy.” While the post is in Czech, translating the text to English reveals a terrifying reality: “All Helldivers must report to their Hellpods immediately. The battle for humanity itself is about to begin!” The post says the event is scheduled to begin May 20.
