The current hype title Helldivers 2 will get fresh game content again next week, because then the Cutting Edge update, which has now been presented in detail, is on the agenda.
Helldivers 2 is currently riding a wave of success – and the numerous players should now be kept on board with new content. The big Cutting Edge update is scheduled for next week, a free content update to prepare you for the next offensive in the Galactic War.
A new planet that serves as a base for a top-secret weapons factory is threatened by the robots and must be protected. The update, dubbed “On the Razor’s Edge” in German, gives you the opportunity to pimp up your equipment with futuristic armor, lightning-spewing weapons, capes and emotes.
The following prototypes from the Ex series bring new armor into play:
-
EX-03 PROTOTYPE 3 – Includes a rubber base layer for insulation. Really handy as the cables on this prototype operate at an incredible 400,000 volts.
-
EX-16 PROTOTYPE 16 – Warning: The electric arc creates a strong magnetic field. Do not use near stapled papers.
-
EX-00-PROTOTYP X – The end result of several billion over-credits and 12 years of research to develop the “Soldier of Tomorrow”. Shows us it was worth the effort.
Apart from these armours, there are also new weapons from the research and development department, namely:
-
LAS-16-SICKLE – A laser rifle that fires in short bursts. Reloading is not necessary. But if it overheats, a new heatsink needs to be installed.
-
SG-8P-PLASMA-PUNISHER – Exploding plasma projectiles sound deadly… because they are – for aliens and allies! This modified Punisher shotgun is as fun as it is terrifying.
-
ARC-12-BLITZER – Projects an arc of light at close range or charges it up to fire powerful bolts. Great for taking out multiple targets and giving you more time to choose a cheer emote.
You can also unlock the G-23 stun grenade and the LAS-7 DAGGER laser pistol and secure three visually matching capes.
The Cutting Edge update will be available for Helldivers 2 from March 14th.
