Helldivers 2 players are constructing a 'Democratic Space Station' in the runup to Liberty Day, which some think is just so that the Illuminate can steam in and blow it up

Spaceship approaches the new, in-progress Democracy Space Station in orbit above a planet in Helldivers 2.

Helldivers 2 is approaching an important fictional anniversary: Liberty Day. On October 26 the citizens of Super Earth, Arrowhead Game Studios, and the playerbase celebrate glorious liberty, an occasion that the original game would mark with title screen fireworks and (often though not always) in-game events or content additions.

It certainly looks like Arrowhead is prepping for something, because players are in the process of building the new Democracy Space Station (DSS), "a powerful strategic tool for reshaping the Galactic Map." The game's Major Orders (which is how the Helldivers are herded around planets) have focused on liberating relevant planets over the last few weeks, ping-ponging players between Automaton and Terminid planets. Well, mostly Automaton to be honest.
