Working out the best Helldivers 2 loadout for your galactic freedom fighter is a bit of a puzzle at first, as you gradually unlock new weapons and armour you can try. The sheer variety in terms of the best weapons alone makes it tough to know what to bring, especially when you only have four slots to work with when you head out for a mission.
With the Escalation of Freedom update soon to drop alongside the Freedom's Flame warbond, we can expect new weapons and Stratagems to experiment with. So, if you're looking for a variety of loadouts to try, see our selection below. My favorite meta loadouts for bots and bugs are listed at the top, then there's a selection of other builds you can try lower down.
