While I’ve always found Helldivers 2’s mechs to be more style over substance, it is undeniably fun to call in a hulking exosuit and spend a few minutes going ham on the enemies of freedom. If you’re the kind of Helldivers player who likes to go all Armored Core on your foes, I have good news. The next warbond for Arrowhead’s sci-fi action game will let you bring not one but two new exosuits into the game.
The Exo Experts warbond doubles the number of exosuits currently available in Helldivers 2. The first of these is the EXO-51 Lumberer, an all-purpose offensive mech equipped with a powerful anti-tank cannon for bringing down armoured foes, plus a flamethrower to keep swarm enemies at bay. Nothing too flashy, but that loadout is more well-rounded than the mechs currently available in the game, and I value effectiveness when bringing stratagems into a mission.

As for standard firearms, the warbond introduces the SMG-203 Gallant, a rapid-firing submachine gun. Similar to the MP-98 Knight, it sacrifices clip size for increased armour penetration. Finally, there’s a new sidearm in the form of the P-33 missile pistol, which literally puts a rocket in your pocket, so make sure you keep the safety on. Outside of weapons, the warbond adds two new armour sets that come with passive boosts to running, sprinting and sliding, plus the usual array of capes, banners, title cards and emotes.
Exo Experts stomps into Helldivers 2 on April 28. Two years on since launch, Helldivers 2 continues to go from strength to strength, with its recent Siege of Cyberstan event bringing some of the most incredible action seen in the game yet. The game also no longer grinds my PC to a halt every time it does a Steam update, which I can only assume is down to its slimmed down install size.
