    Arrowhead Game Studios’ today announced a massive update for Helldivers 2, titled Escalation of Freedom, set to launch on August 6, 2024. The free update promises to be the biggest yet, with new missions, objectives, enemies, planets, and even a new difficulty level.

    In a statement celebrating the game’s six-month anniversary and the community’s dedication, Arrowhead highlighted the update’s key features:

    • Super Helldive (CR 10): A new, relentless difficulty level designed for the most experienced Helldivers, promising intense combat and greater rewards.
    • New Mission Objectives & Outposts: A wider variety of mission goals and larger enemy outposts for both Automatons and Terminids, offering new Super Sample rewards.
    • New Enemy Threats: The return of the Impaler from the original Helldivers, alongside the Spore Charger and the Alpha Commander for the Terminids. Automatons will also face new foes, including the Rocket Tank.
    • Dangerous Swamps: A new environment shrouded in fog and overgrown flora, demanding careful navigation and strategic combat.

    Arrowhead also addressed community concerns about grief kicking, implementing a system where kicked players spawn into a new session as the host, retaining all loot. The kicking squad will receive a notification, but their loot will remain unchanged. Additional quality-of-life improvements include fixes to the social menu for smoother friend invites and diving experiences.

    The Escalation of Freedom update promises to be a substantial content drop, welcoming new players and challenging veterans alike. The huge update will drop on August 6, 2024, for PC and PS5.
