New Helldivers 2 Freedom’s Flame Warbond burns bright on August 8
They say you can’t start a fire without a spark…
Well, Helldivers, we’re about to spark a galactic-scale inferno. Your new Premium Warbond is deploying to all active patriots on 8 August – codename Freedom’s Flame.*
Incinerate everything standing in your path with new weaponry almost too hot to handle; survive the heat of battle with lifesaving armor; and burn brightly across the cosmos with fresh emotes, capes, and skins.
Right now, swarms of disgusting bugs and packs of mechanized monstrosities are invading innocent worlds.
Stop them… destroy them… cremate them.
Let’s cook, Helldivers. Light it up in the name of liberty!
Firepower
Primary:
SG-451 Cookout
Burn, baby, burn! A pump action shotgun that unleashes a burst of incendiary phosphorus pellets at your helpless enemies.
FLAM-66 Torcher
A lightweight flamethrower shooting pressurized fuel through a nozzle into a roaring, open flame. Sounds safe. It isn’t. Watch where you’re standing.
Secondary:
P-72 Crisper
A flamethrower that fits in your pocket for the Helldiver on the go! What will those guys think of next? This lovely compact handgun projects a jet of freedom flames over short distances.
Booster:
Fiery Drop – Firebomb Hellpods
Scorch the earth (and anything else) below as you touch down with attitude and ignite the dropsite.
Armor:
I-09 Heatseeker
Proudly display the burnished blood-red plates that were forged in righteous fire, like the heroes they were wrought to protect — a true vision of democracy.
I-102 Draconaught
Ah, there’s nothing quite like those satisfying screeches as the enemies of freedom burn. Enjoy it all in this 14-cm sheathed silica fiber foam armor with an exclusive tube-to-ear feature.
Armor Passive
Inflammable! Enjoy 75% damage resistance to fire as you run head-first into danger like the unstoppable legend your mum said you’d be.
Title: Fire Safety Officer
You can now call yourself a Fire Safety Officer. Doesn’t come with a certificate.
Skin: Safety Orange
Repaint your Shuttle, Hellpod, and Exosuit in striking Safety Orange.
Capes & Cards
Purifying Eclipse
A heartfelt tribute to the Liberation of Choepessa IV in the First Galactic War, in which so much orbital ordnance was detonated that its sun was occluded by ash for an entire lunar cycle.
The Breach
The final mission of the 361st Freedom’s Flame saw this storied unit deploy into the heart of a Supervolcano in a mission of heroic sacrifice. Triggering a huge eruption, this act of incredible bravery wiped out a massive Terminid swarm. As documented in the bestselling graphic novel ‘The Breach,’ it is available at all good book shops on Super Earth.
Emotes
Big Stretch, Deep Reflection, and Thoracic Collision Exultation Manoeuvre Co-emote. If you’re going to win. Win in style.
Freedom’s Flame is rolling out to your Destroyer’s Acquisitions panel on 8 August.
So ramp up the temperature to fry up some tasty justice, served with a side order of delicious grilled democracy.
Tonight, we dine – and dive – in hell.
See you planetside.
