For the popular co-operative shooter Helldivers 2 released the largest update Escalation of Freedom, which added a lot of new content to the game.

Here's What We Know

Developers from Arrowhead Studios added the tenth difficulty level "Mega Hell" (Super Helldive), which will be a real challenge even for the most experienced players.

New mission objectives have been added to the sorties, such as storming human recycling factories or extracting a sample of live terminid larvae.

Enemy outposts will become larger, and players will encounter new types of Terminids and Automatons, as well as the large monster The Impaler from the first instalment of Helldivers.

Players will find themselves on an uncharted planet covered in swamps and will encounter new weather conditions, including an acid storm that corrodes the armour of both troopers and their enemies.

Escalation of Freedom update implies not only adding new content, but also adjusting old elements of Helldivers 2, rebalancing and revising some gameplay elements.

The full list of changes can be found on the game's Steam page and on the PS Blog.
