Arrowhead Studios and Sony Interactive Entertainment unveil the Truth Enforcers Warbond, a premium content pack for Helldivers 2, launching October 31st, 2024. This substantial update offers more than just cosmetic additions; it's a comprehensive arsenal upgrade transforming players into Super Earth's elite Truth Enforcers.

Helldivers 2: Truth Enforcers Warbond – New Weapons, Armor, and Cosmetics

Become a Super Earth Truth Enforcer This Halloween!

Arriving on October 31st, the Truth Enforcers Warbond, acquired through the in-game Acquisitions Center for 1,000 Super Credits, functions similarly to a battle pass but with permanent access to unlocked items. Earn Medals to unlock its content at your own pace.

This Warbond emphasizes the Ministry of Truth's unwavering principles, providing cutting-edge weapons and armor to enhance your Helldiver's capabilities.

The arsenal includes the versatile PLAS-15 Loyalist Plasma Pistol (semi-auto or charged shots), the rapid-fire SMG-32 Reprimand submachine gun for close-quarters combat, and the SG-20 Halt shotgun, switching between stun and armor-piercing rounds for superior crowd control.

Demonstrate your loyalty with the UF-16 Inspector (light armor with red accents and "Proof of Faultless Virtue" cape) or the UF-50 Bloodhound (medium armor, red accents, and "Pride of the Whistleblower" cape). Both offer the Unflinching perk, reducing stagger from incoming fire.

Beyond armor, customize your Helldivers experience with new banners, cosmetic patterns for hellpods, exosuits, and Pelican-1, and the "At Ease" emote. The Dead Sprint booster lets you sprint and dive past stamina limits at the cost of health – a high-risk, high-reward maneuver.

Helldivers 2's Future: Overcoming Initial Player Base Challenges

Despite a strong initial launch (peaking at 458,709 concurrent Steam players), Helldivers 2 experienced a player base decline due to initial account linking restrictions. While the August Escalation of Freedom update boosted player numbers, the concurrent player count currently sits below 40,000 on Steam. The Truth Enforcers Warbond aims to reignite player engagement with its exciting new content.
