The galaxy of Helldivers 2 was finally visited by the Illuminate, also known as the Enlightened. Arrowhead Studio also appeared at The Games Awards 2024 (and, following the example of Swen Vicker last year, in full gear), to announce another major update to their successful multiplayer game.

You can watch the trailer for Helldivers 2: Omens of Tyranny below.

Of course, the main attraction of the "add-on" will be a new enemy race on Super Earth, which will complicate humanity's war with threats to democracy. The Enlightened attacked many colonies, as a result of which the "hell divers" had to fight, among others, on the streets of cities.

Furthermore, the game now includes a reconnaissance vehicle that will enable you to traverse planets (and run over enemies) at high speed.

Omens of Tyranny update is now available on PC and PlayStation 5. You can find a full and very long list of changes in the developers' announcement on Steam.
