Helldivers 2: ‘Heart of Democracy’ Update Unleashes Illuminate Invasion on Super Earth!

The nightmare has arrived! The Helldivers 2's latest update, Heart of Democracy, brings the fight to the very streets of Super Earth. Brace yourselves, Helldivers, as the alien Illuminate have breached our defenses and are currently swarming our cities, terrorizing citizens, and threatening everything we hold dear. It’s time to return home and defend what is rightfully ours!

Urban Warfare: A New Battlefield

Prepare for intense combat in the heart of Super Earth's sprawling cities. Battle amongst towering skyscrapers and crowded streets as the Illuminate unleash destruction all around. These urban biomes will host operations with significant impact on planetary campaigns, turning the tide in this intergalactic tug-of-war.

Repel the Invasion and Arm the Cannons!

The Helldivers are faced with a critical new objective: to repel the invading Illuminate forces. You'll need to gain ground against the squid-like invaders, fighting for control of vital landing zones. But we are not defenseless! Hidden beneath Super Earth's democratic façade lies a powerful arsenal. Players must activate Planetary Defense Cannons to obliterate the Illuminate fleet in a spectacular display of firepower. Think of it as Super Earth striking back with all its technological might!

SEAF Troops & Civilian Protection: All Hands on Deck!

The fight isn’t ours alone. SEAF troops will join the fray, offering temporary backup in your missions. Lead them to victory and show the Illuminate what Super Earth stands for. However, remember that civilian lives are paramount. Protect the panicked citizens roaming the streets, as any friendly fire incidents will be punished. This means a whole new level of trigger discipline in the heat of combat.

New Threats & Weapon Customization

Beyond the new cityscapes, prepare to face even more daunting Illuminate forces, with larger, more powerful enemy types. Be wary of the Stingray, aerial support units providing strafing runs. And then, the Fleshmob, Frankenstein's monster of Voteless parts, is a dangerous experiment gone awry.

To combat these growing threats, a new weapon customization system has been introduced. Most primary weapons can now be leveled up by completing missions, unlocking new attachments to fine-tune ammo capacity, fire rate, recoil, and reload time.
