- Update: It wasn't in the patch notes, but Helldivers 2's new patch also added Shrieker Terminid bugs to the game! These flying bat-like creatures dive at players from above, and are nimble but have low health. Like Stalkers, they come from nests that occasionally appear in missions as side objectives.
- Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has released a new patch for the game. The patch is available to download now on both PC and PS5.
- The update reduces the spawn rate of Bile Titans and Chargers at high difficulties, while simultaneously increasing the number of other units that spawn in swarms alongside these elite threats.
- Additionally, the health of Charger heads has been reduced, and it's now possible to kill them in one shot by hitting them there with an Expendable Anti-Tank or Recoilless Rifle rocket.
- Also, the Electronic Countermeasures modifier that scrambled stratagem code inputs has been removed while Arrowhead reworks it. The studio says it "found that this modifier wasn’t communicated clearly enough and overall caused more frustration than excitement with the way it was currently implemented."
