Helldivers 2's next warbond is full of funky alien tech, including a "(somewhat) stable wormhole" teleportation pack

If you've ever wanted a weapon that tin occurrence each its ammo successful 1 go, now's your time

Sometimes, erstwhile you're warring aliens, you've got to whip retired a weapon that mightiness detonate successful your ain face. Them's the rules. You've got to hazard it for a cocoa biscuit. Or, astatine slightest that's premise of Helldivers 2's latest warbond.

Dubbed Control Group, it'll springiness you entree to a clump of experimental cogwheel Super Earth's scientists person cobbled unneurotic from captured Illuminate tech if you opt to prime it up erstwhile it drops connected June 17th.

As outlined successful the PS Blog penned by Arrowhead assemblage manager Katherine Baskin, this warbond for the shooter includes a superior weapon, 3 stratagems, and the accustomed array of stocking fillers.

I'll commencement disconnected with the stratagem that's caught my eye, the LIFT-182 warp pack. With assistance from the Illuminate's spooky acheronian fluid (ooh, matron), it generates a "(somewhat) unchangeable wormhole connected demand", which you tin past hop into to teleport abbreviated distances without a cooldown. As with each of the main Control Group warbond gear, however, there's a quirky catch. Each clip you teleport, the spread destabilises a spot more. If you effort 1 leap excessively many, it'll warp you into the afterlife. Nice.

Continuing that trend, the primary's a VG-70 Variable volley weapon that comes with 3 firing settings, with 1 spunking retired each of your remaining ammo astatine erstwhile successful a manner that's perchance fatal to the user. The PLAS-45 Epoch plasma weapon stratagem mightiness detonate successful your look if you overcharge it. The 3rd stratagem, an A/LAS-98 laser sentry turret, volition spell roar if you hide to fto it chill down each truthful often.

Armour-wise, there's the AD-49 Apollonian dense acceptable and the AD-26 Bleeding Edge mean set, with some boasting an "Adreno-Defibrillator" that'll revive you once, but permission you dilatory dying erstwhile it's done so. So, champion get the ngo done speedy erstwhile you're connected your 2nd life.

All it all, it looks to beryllium 1 of the much amusive warbonds Arrowhead's enactment unneurotic truthful far, particularly for those of america who're not mega into alternate ways to look similar you've got immoderate dodgy views astir authoritarianism oregon cosplay arsenic Judge Dredd. Given HD2's astatine its champion erstwhile you're having a laugh, I'm gladsome it's getting being stabbed with a slapstick syringe connected the 17th.
