Helldivers 2: Masters of Ceremony Warbond Brings Swords, Flags, and Explosive Fireworks to the Galactic Battlefield
Get ready to liberate the galaxy with unprecedented style! Helldivers 2 is about to get a major injection of pomp and circumstance with the upcoming Masters of Ceremony Premium Warbond, launching on May 15th for PlayStation 5 and Windows PC. Forget standard-issue weaponry; this Warbond is all about making a statement while spreading Managed Democracy.
The highlight? A melee-focused arsenal that includes a vintage sword (the CQC-2 Sabre) and the audacious ability to impale enemies with the CQC-1 One True Flag – yes, you can now wield the Super Earth flag as a weapon! This Stratagem allows players to bring the values of glorious sovereignty directly to the Terminids and Automatons, driving home your point – literally.
But it's not all close-quarters combat. The Warbond also introduces the R-2 Amendment rifle, a marksman rifle equipped with a sharp bayonet for versatile engagement at any range. And for those who prefer a more explosive approach, the G-142 Pyrotech Grenade unleashes a dazzling fireworks display before delivering a fiery payload – a truly ceremonious way to eliminate the enemies of Super Earth.
"Prepare for the warbond announcement on the 8th," teased Arrowhead CEO Shams Jorjani, sparking a frenzy of anticipation among players eager for new content. While some fans joked about expecting something so revolutionary that it would make them "shit their pants," the reality is this new Warbond offers a stylish and engaging array of options for Helldivers.
The Masters of Ceremony Warbond doesn't stop at weapons. It includes a swath of cosmetics designed to make you look good while fighting for freedom. Armor sets like the RE-1861 Parade Commander and the RE-2310 Honorary Guard offer distinct visual styles, paired with capes like the Humble Regalia and Federations Embrace to further enhance your Helldiver's aesthetic. Both armors come standard with the Reinforced Epaulettes perk, increasing your chances of limb survival during intense firefights.
Players can also unlock the Decorated Hero title and Lockstep emote to ensure synchronized celebrations of victory alongside their fellow Helldivers. Arrowhead Game Studios also mentioned they are cooking on other content and that more exciting news will come not long after this release.
Furthermore, by popular demand, Arrowhead is adding new FRV patterns to previously released Warbonds, offering a fresh look to the Viper Commando, Freedom’s Flame, Chemical Agents, and Truth Enforcers Warbond pages.
