Upcoming Helldivers Sequel Promises Major Overhaul, Early Leak Suggests Disappointment

The games of Helldivers 2 will perhaps take another turn with the imminent arrival of a major threat according to yet another leak. A new challenge that the soldiers of democracy are already ready to take on.

Arrowhead Game Studios clearly never rests. A patch 01.000.300 for Helldivers 2 was deployed in the last few hours and it still brings a bunch of changes. Among them, many modifications to balance weapons and equipment, enemies as well as stratagems, and adjustments such as an improvement in level generation. This makes it possible to review in particular the position of the objectives and the distance between each of them. But this update seems very light compared to the next mission that awaits players.

A new leak on the long-awaited threat of Helldivers 2?

According to recent leaks, Helldivers 2 should soon have a new car called Colony Rover. An armored personnel carrier that might not be directly playable. Indeed, according to one theory, it might be a means of transport that would have to be tracked during an escort mission. The studio still hasn't even taken the time to react that another leak is spreading as fast as a pack of Terminides. And as for the Colony Rover, this discovery comes from Reddit user IronS1ghts. What could he have unearthed this time by searching the bowels of Hellidverse 2? Two images that call out.

The first shot shows a planet imploding and cannot be saved. This would be one of the four systems in Helldivers 2, Meridia, which became a Super-Colony. Translation: the insects dominate despite the efforts of those who fight for democracy, and there is no choice but to destroy the place without asking any questions. The second reveals a device with inside a ball filled with a black liquid material. A tool that would be used for the annihilation of the planet Meridia.

But this explosion would have a hidden objective: the appearance of the Illuminate in Helldivers 2. The third faction of the game which was already present in Helldivers and which everyone is eagerly awaiting. A fearsome aquatic species that possesses weapons capable of hurting, very hurting. Even the studio has again denied it, their presence has already been felt through blue lasers which inflicted significant damage on certain soldiers.
