The Helldivers 2 Update: Machinery of Oppression is Here!
Get ready for an intense battle as the Cyborgs make a comeback! In a surprising twist, the Automatons have stolen the schematics for the Star of Peace, intending to build their own and unleash chaos. The Cyborg Legion has commissioned this treacherous act, and it's up to the Helldivers to stop them.
The Factory Cities of Cyberstan
Super Earth is bringing the fight to the heart of Cyberstan. Prepare to storm the factory cities, the strongholds of the Automatons. Navigate through treacherous landscapes and heavily fortified industrial complexes, where every corner hides a new hazard. The Helldivers must unite to clear a path, choosing which cities to destroy and leaving no bot untouched in their mission to democratize these heartless machines.
New Mission and Objectives
Your primary goal is to halt the production of Cyborgs and neutralize Automaton defenses. Helldivers will have the chance to dismantle the mega factories, piece by piece, and topple the statues of war criminals and terrorists, further demoralizing the Cyborg regime. But beware, as the Cyborgs have acquired new weapons of mass destruction.
Old Enemies Return, New Threats Arise
Face off against three new enemy types within the Cyborg subfaction. Outsmart the Agitators, heavily armored and capable of controlling enemy squads, making tactical decisions on the battlefield. Battle the Cyborg Radicals, who rush in from all sides, pushing their bodies to the limit with cybernetic enhancements. And finally, confront the Vox Engine, the Voice of the Cyborg Legion, a powerful war machine piloted by a high-ranking officer, armed with dual laser cannons, rockets, and laser gatlings.
Helldivers Call for Aid
Super Earth responds! Along with the Siege Breakers Warbond, offering defensive support, Helldivers can now purchase the War Horses armor set from the Superstore. But remember, sending reinforcements to Cyberstan is a risky move, so every Helldiver's survival is crucial.
Global Reinforcement Limits
The Battle for Cyberstan is a delicate matter. Each Helldiver's death is counted using a Galactic Reinforcement Counter, marking the limit of deployable Helldivers. If the counter reaches zero, the battle is lost. So, Helldivers, stay alive, stimulate your squadmates, and bring defensive strategies as you fight across Cyberstan, destroying the factory cities together!
The Machinery of Oppression update is now live! Remember, you'll need the base game, Super Credits, and game progression to unlock it. Online gameplay requires an internet connection and a paid PlayStation Plus membership on PS5.
