A new Warbond in less than a month? The Masters of Ceremony dropped on May 15, and it was even modified at the end of May. However, the Arrowhead devs have been unstoppable lately! They’ve announced the new Warbond, Force of Law, will drop in Helldivers 2 on June 12. So, what’s in it?
Arrowhead Announces the Force of Law Warbond
On June 5, Baskinator, the Community Manager, shared the exciting news on the official Discord channel. She shared the trailer and the blog post for the upcoming Warbond. So, let’s dive in!
Starting with the trailer, the devs have truly outdone themselves. Every new trailer is a whole new experience. The devs noted: “When it comes to Super Earth, you are the law–the final word on freedom and Managed Democracy in our streets. You are the keeper of the peace and the deliverer of justice, but you need to step up your gear before you go out on patrol”.
The devs obviously heard the players’ critiques when it comes to the size of recent Warbonds. So, they made sure to include a little bit of everything in the upcoming Warbond.
Starting off strong, Helldivers will get a primary weapon (the AR-32 Pacifier), a throwable (G-109 Urchin stun grenade), and two Stratagems (the loyal AX/ARC-3 “Guard Dog” K-9 and the GL-52 De-Escalator). Arcdivers will be quite happy!
Next up, you’ll need some new armor sets and capes. Baskinator noted: “This isn’t an undercover job, either, so you need to get some gear that lets citizens, SEAF, and squids alike know you’re on the beat”. And everyone will notice you in BP-20 Correct Officer and BP-32 Jackboot. Don’t forget to bring the Miranda’s Legacy or the Mother Eagle’s Wings cape.
Finally, you’ll also get a new booster (Stun Pods), the True Blue pattern (for FRV, exosuits, shuttle and hellpod), a couple of banners, and a title. Oh, and let’s not forget about new emotes! You’ll get three hand signal emotes for Hold, Silence, and Group Up.
Helldivers Are Excited for the New Warbond
The devs listened, and the community is finally happy. We haven’t seen Helldivers 2 players this excited in a while, and hopefully, the Force of Law Warbond will be worth the hype. For now, the players have only words of praise for both the devs and the Warbond.
One player, WarumUbersetzen, noted: “Looks great! Very surprised they came out with a new warbond so soon. I’m glad to see another ‘vanilla’ assault rifle, hopefully this one is very modular. Other stuff looks great too, and the armor passive sounds pretty decent to me”.
So, dear Helldiver, get ready! The new Warbond drops on June 12. Meanwhile, join us for the Major Order. Helldivers are so close to completing it. Meet us on Tarsh! For Liberty and Super Earth.
