Unleash large-scale destructive power through stratagems, explore unique planets and complete objectives together, and upgrade your equipment through the deep progression system of Helldivers 2. Collect natural resources of alien origin and use them to enhance and unlock new stratagems aboard your ship.The planning for liberty starts today as you need to choose between the Standard Edition and the Super Citizen Edition of Helldivers 2, which includes some awesome additional content!
