Eagle-eyed Helldivers 2 followers have noticed what appears to be like like a leak from PlayStation that implies gamers will find yourself preventing again in opposition to the Illuminate on the streets of Super Earth.
This week, developer Arrowhead launched the full Illuminate invasion, including new enemy varieties in the course of. The in-universe wording of the invasion urged the Illuminate have been heading straight for Super Earth, and now a leak popping out of the official Czech Republic Threads account means that the Illuminate won’t solely make it to our dwelling planet, however we’ll should combat them off there.
Redditor xTekshi noticed the now-deleted submit, which spoke of a “Coronary heart of Democracy” replace coming on Could 20. Whereas Coronary heart of Democracy is referenced in the official working round this week’s replace, neither Sony nor Arrowhead have confirmed it in relation to a Could 20 launch.
Including additional gasoline to the hearth is the reality a Could 20 launch would match with the timing of the finish of the present Main Order.
Official Ps account for the Czech Republic dropped information on the subsequent title replace.

This all feels just about inevitable, and that’s the wording Sony and Arrowhead have used for this replace (“Excessive Command believes this Fleet’s final goal to be the invasion of Super Earth itself” and “Battle on Super Earth is inevitable”).
So, followers suppose the Czech account by chance leaked Helldivers 2’s subsequent main replace, and with it plans to combat on Super Earth itself. If true, this may be a big improve for the explosive third-person motion recreation, which at the moment consists of alien planet maps solely. Enjoying on Super Earth would definitely provide one thing totally different.
Warning! Spoilers for Helldivers 2 observe:
Now, in a current improvement, gameplay of Super Earth Mega Cities has leaked on-line, by way of social media account IronS1ghts and their YouTube channel. The gameplay reveals Super Earth as a vacation spot in Helldivers 2. You’re in a position to select from a spread of metropolis missions, as you may on different planets (“York Supreme” is a metropolis in North America).
On the floor we see future Earth city areas, with the Illuminate invasion ongoing. SEAF (the equal of the nationwide guard or militia) troopers are preventing alongside the Helldivers. For me, this jogs my memory rather a lot of Halo 3: ODST, with the Covenant invading Earth.
How is that this gameplay potential? Apparently the Super Earth content material is in the Helldivers 2 recreation recordsdata already, ready to launch.
Whereas we anticipate an official announcement, try the particulars of this week’s replace.
