Helldivers 2's galactic war will include more "multi-week themed campaigns" and "branching outcomes" starting this summer, Arrowhead reveal

They've besides confirmed that caller exosuits won't conscionable get via warbonds

Helldivers 2 developers Arrowhead person shared immoderate of their plans to amended the shooter's long-running galactic warfare starting this summer. Weekly large orders - the overarching goals players are fixed to assistance usher them towards definite missions that mesh with wherever the war's communicative is presently at, volition turn into "longer, multi-week themed campaigns".

"That said, we’ve seen the feedback astir however that landed - particularly erstwhile it comes to expectations astir however players unlock large gameplay items similar exosuits. More broadly, we privation to onslaught the close equilibrium betwixt what’s included successful Warbonds and what’s disposable done gameplay, truthful that rewards consciousness some breathtaking and fair. And to beryllium wide - yes, you volition beryllium getting different vehicles done gameplay successful the future."

Finally, Arrowhead revealed they person "teams actively moving connected some caller reddish stratagems, evolving ships, and subordinate progression to level 150...and beyond".
