Helldivers 2 - Cutting Edge Warbond

Get ready to slice, shock, and split your enemies in the latest Helldivers 2 update with the launch of the Cutting Edge Warbond Battle Pass.

Arrowhead Game Studios is calling on all players to join the front lines of Helldivers 2 and liberate the brutal land of Tien Kwan. With the upcoming Helldivers 2 Warbond, Cutting Edge, you'll receive the necessary equipment to decisively confront your adversaries.

Upgrading to Top-Class Arsenal

The Cutting Edge Warbond brings an exciting time for one of the best multiplayer games. PS5 players are already exploring the brand-new planet of Helldivers 2, which is also the source of the Exo-45 Patriot Exosuits, a massive mech recently teased by Arrowhead. This follows the developer's call to players to join the fight, as "our factories are under attack and production is halted. Helldivers have been dispatched to liberate Tien Kwan!"

Innovative Weapon Arsenal in Detail

With the next update on Thursday, March 14, 2024, you have the opportunity to expand your arsenal with cutting-edge equipment. Innovations include futuristic armors, weapons that spit lightning, super stylish capes, and epic emotes. Three new protective layers in the Cutting Edge Warbond invite experimentation:

  • EX-03 Prototype 3: Featuring a rubber base for insulation that operates at a shocking 400,000 volts.
  • EX-16 Prototype 16: Generates a strong magnetic field through electrical arcs. Do not use near stapled papers.
  • EX-00 Prototype X: The result of several billion Super Credits and 12 years of research to create the "Soldier of Tomorrow."

While Arrowhead has not specified to which tiers these armor sets belong, one thing is clear: things are going to be electrifying.

New Weapons Bring Excitement to the Game

The arrival of new weapons promises to further enrich the gameplay. These include the LAS-16 Sickle, a laser rifle that functions similarly to the Laser Canon, the SG-8P Punisher Plasma (a variant of the Punisher shotgun with plasma ammunition), and the ARC-12 Blitzer, which projects lightning at short range and can fire four of them. Additionally, there is a new stun grenade, the G-23 Stun, and the LAS-7 Dagger Pistol.

With this fresh armament and the introduction of mechs, Helldivers 2 on the PS5 becomes even more appealing. Whether these will also protect against the deadly planetary hazards remains to be seen. But one thing is certain: the battlefields of Helldivers 2 will become even more dynamic and electrifying with the Cutting Edge Warbond.
