Helldivers 2 player photographs two myths—flying bugs and blue lasers—at the same time, like getting a shot of Bigfoot next to a UFO

An alien expert from Ancient Aliens holds a small Illuminate sniper in his hands from Helldivers 1. In the background are Shriekers, a flying variant of Terminid.

If you listened to your Super Earth superiors—which you should—you would know that flying bugs in Helldivers 2 are a myth created by insect-loving fascists, and blue lasers are a figment of your imagination. Unless you've been looking at video evidence, which is high treason, so you shouldn't be doing that.

If for some reason you were (hypothetically) engaging in such thought crimes, you'd know that there's been video and photo evidence of both cryptids with varying degrees of legitimacy—hinting at both a new Terminid enemy type, and the return of Helldivers 1's hyper-advanced Illuminate faction.
