Eagle-eyed fans of Helldivers 2 have uncovered what appears to be a significant leak from PlayStation, hinting at an upcoming confrontation against the Illuminate on the streets of Super Earth. This week, developer Arrowhead rolled out the full-scale Illuminate invasion, introducing new enemy types to the mix. The narrative within the game suggested that the Illuminate's ultimate goal was to reach Super Earth, and a now-deleted post from the official PlayStation Czech Republic Threads account seems to confirm this trajectory. The post mentioned a forthcoming "Heart of Democracy" update slated for May 20, which aligns with the timeline of the current Major Order's conclusion.
Redditor xTekshi was quick to spot the leak, which has since been removed. While the term "Heart of Democracy" has been referenced in the context of this week's update, neither Sony nor Arrowhead have officially confirmed its connection to a May 20 release. The anticipation is heightened by the developers' own statements, such as "High Command believes this Fleet's ultimate objective to be the invasion of Super Earth itself" and "Battle on Super Earth is inevitable," which suggest that a showdown on our home planet is on the horizon.
The leak from the Czech Republic's PlayStation account has led fans to believe that it inadvertently revealed Helldivers 2's next major update, which would introduce battles on Super Earth. If these speculations hold true, this would mark a significant evolution for the game, known for its explosive third-person action on alien planets. Fighting on Super Earth would not only provide a fresh setting but also potentially introduce new gameplay dynamics and challenges.
