It's not often Helldivers 2's director pops up on Reddit to dispense a bit of interesting insight at the moment, since he's still on sabbatical from developer Arrowhead. However, Johan Pilestedt's just made a brief cameo on Reddit to reveal the reason which a bunch of the game's helmets boast similar circles on their backs.
Panic over. At least for now. Sort of. Fresh off of the news that Helldivers 2 is getting some fresh content in May, April's closed with the Illuminate's planet-eating death ball being stopped in its tracks - something players have been working towards for ages.
If you've been wondering when Helldivers 2 will get its next batch of fresh content, the good news is that Arrowhead's broken its silence. The studio's revealed that you can expect the next Warbond to be announced on May 8, as well as teasing "more exciting news to come not long after".
So, Helldivers 2 players have been asking Arrowhead to spice things up a bit in the Galactic War for a little bit now, in spite of the whole ongoing planet-eating wormhole problem.
While players are still hoping for a big content update soon, Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead has been busy making some tweaks to the game as the Meridian death ball situation in the Galactic War has reached what could be its conclusion.
