Royal Armament and Prestige Awaits: New Sabres Coming to Helldivers 2 with Premium Battle Reward

To celebrate the triumph over the Illuminati, the governance of Super-Earth will retrieve uniforms, sabers, and other gear befitting true royal troops. The premium combat achievement «Master of Ceremonies» will be included in Helldivers 2 on May 15.

Hell Divers will have the option to equip the R-2 bayonet rifle and the CQC-2 saber, which is designed to inspire you to lead the charge and plunge your blade into the hearts of foes. The pack will also feature the G-142 grenade, which, when thrown, releases a burst of sparks before exploding. To uplift the spirits of your comrades, a flag is included that can double as a spear.

For those who prefer a more formal attire, the lightweight RE-1861 «Parade Commander» armor is a fitting choice. Should you need something more intimidating, check out the RE-2310 «Honor Guard» armor. As pointed out in the comments of the trailer, Arrowhead has cleverly incorporated its name into the shooter’s lore, as evidenced by the arrow on the «Honor Guard» helmet. A unique perk of the two mentioned outfits grants your limbs a chance to avoid breaking, allowing you to continue waving the banner of victory.

Additionally, the «Master of Ceremonies» pack will include two capes, an emote, and a sample scanner that enables you to collect even more samples in a single run, along with other items.

Following the announcement of the premium achievement, some users recalled the words of Arrowhead‘s CEO Shams Jorjani, who described the future of Helldivers 2 by suggesting that gamers would be «sweating with excitement.» Consequently, the studio representatives quickly reminded everyone who is still unsure about whether they should «be worried» that the CEO was referring not only to the battle pass but also to a major update. This update is set to release alongside the achievement «or thereabouts.»
