Helldivers 2 fans didn’t quite get the massive update some were anticipating this week, but at least their latest mission brings some significant stakes in the ongoing Galactic War. If you’re tired of the purple Meridian death ball wreaking havoc on planets, here’s your opportunity to take action.
So far, the death ball has consumed three worlds—Moradesh, Angel’s Venture, and more recently, Ivis. Players have been left either mourning these losses or feeling a bit detached, especially as the whole death ball saga is beginning to wear thin for some of the seasoned divers. It’s high time we put an end to its advance towards Super Earth.
In the wake of a victory on Wezen, divers managed to construct an Exosuit Support Bay on their Democracy Space Station, reducing exosuit stratagem cooldowns for everyone by 35%. This latest major order follows that success.
According to reports, astrophysicists at the Center of Science on Fenrir III are close to entering the final phase of their plan to halt the Meridian Singularity. However, to delve further into the highly theoretical aspects of Dark Energy manipulation, they’ll need large amounts of E-710 for experimentation.
High Command has authorized a second, limited expedition into the Gloom to advance technology sufficiently to stop the Meridian Wormhole. The first scientific expedition proved that the Gloom is a deadly yet valuable source of E-710. And if there’s any excess, it might even be available for trade, supporting broader prosperity.
To liberate planet Nivel 43, secure the E-710, and thwart the death ball, divers will once again face the same “Gloom-specific terminid strains” encountered during their initial foray into the mist. Time to take on those big, bad bugs!
The good news is that players are excited about venturing back into the fog. A post on the game’s subreddit announced, “THERES ANOTHER GLOOM EXPEDITION,” sparking a thread filled with enthusiasm for smashing terminids. It’s a refreshing change for those weary of battling automatons and illuminates.
Are you gearing up to dive into the gloom this weekend to tackle that wormhole? Share your thoughts with us below!
