New features such as an energy-powered RPG, a meteor-like nuke, and summonable NPC support characters were also reported by players in the leaked footage.
While mechs were present in the original Helldivers game, an announcement trailer for the sequel hinted at their return post-launch.
Following the recent resolution of prevalent server issues that players experienced after the game's initial launch, Arrowhead's Johan Pilestedt expressed intentions to shift the studio's focus towards game enhancement and new content development.
"We're now in an optimal position to concentrate on game improvements and proceed with our primary roadmap," Pilestedt announced. An exciting array of plans awaits fans!
In an effort to enrich the content plans of the Sony-published shooter even further, Pilestedt recently expressed the company's ambition to expand its developer team. Helldivers 2 is currently available for PC and PS5 players.
