Helldivers 2 Players Are Looking For Hidden Messages Amid Black Hole Disaster

Easter eggs and concealed messages are aged chapeau for galore ongoing games, and Helldivers 2 is nary alien to them either. So it's small astonishment that amid an ongoing, calamitous struggle with the Illuminate, players are poring implicit the messages for hidden details.

If you're not caught up with the moving communicative successful Helldivers 2, here's a speedy catch-up: developer Arrowhead has the Illuminate backmost and pushing the lines of galactic warfare arsenic the latest menace to Super Earth. The eerie foe is utilizing a monolithic achromatic spread to dilatory devour full planets, pushing it to Angel's Venture and, now, Moradesh.

Ironically, the achromatic spread was initially created connected Meridian by Super Earth, successful an effort to hitch retired a Terminid Super Colony. Arrowhead's got a peculiar penchant for "yes, and"-ing the outcomes of the galactic campaigns. The dilatory physique to close now, with the Illuminate beauteous overmuch pushing a achromatic spread dilatory towards Super Earth, is the latest successful a agelong enactment of dominoes.

So, present we're here: Moradesh is evacuating, and Helldivers are anticipating the adjacent measurement of this cataclysmic campaign. Yet immoderate are digging into the evacuation orders, trying to suss retired a hidden meaning from the messages Arrowhead is broadcasting.

Nothing factual has surfaced beyond that, but astatine slightest a fewer fans are convinced there's thing hidden successful these messages.

It wouldn't beryllium the archetypal clip players person gone diving for secrets successful Arrowhead's updates. With the Meridian Singularity dilatory approaching Super Earth, though, I bash wonderment whether Helldivers person clip to spare for this.

Arrowhead has, since the demolition of Moradesh, issued a caller Major Order for players, tasking them with defending planets truthful Super Earth tin conception a Penrose Energy Siphon and effect a "one-time reduction" successful Dark Energy Accumulation.

MAJOR ORDER: Following days of diligent assets postulation and repurposing of force combatants, the Helldivers person enabled the operation of a partial blockade of the Meridian Singularity.

Hopefully, this tin enactment a halt to the elephantine teardrop successful abstraction that's dilatory encroaching connected everything the Helldivers clasp dear. And, possibly, enactment a fewer much concealed messages retired into the ether.

This is each portion of Helldivers 2's ongoing, assemblage driven Galactic War, which has captured the attraction of the game's assemblage for implicit a twelvemonth now. The Illuminate invaded successful December with an archetypal alien unit that added caller enemies to combat against arsenic good arsenic marque caller Super Earth colonies to combat on. These colonies introduced Helldivers 2’s archetypal municipality environments, with metropolis streets packed with guiltless civilians mind-controlled by the Illuminate. The Voteless, arsenic they’re called by Super Earth, are small much than zombies who privation thing much than to squad players limb from limb.
