Sony inadvertently unveils the yet-to-be-announced Helldivers 2 stratagem
An exciting and unexpected feature of Helldivers 2 has recently come to light online, seemingly revealed through an official email from Sony. This inadvertent disclosure, which was shared in a promotional message aimed at fans of the Helldivers series, has generated considerable buzz.
The email showcased the Airburst Rocket Launcher, a formidable reward that players can unlock after triumphantly completing Operation Legitimate Undertaking during the mission to liberate Penta. This accidental revelation has intrigued gamers, stirring anticipation and curiosity about other potential surprises and features that Helldivers 2 might have in store.
However, there's an issue; the item shown in the attached image isn't the Airburst... or, in fact, any item presently in the Helldiver's arsenal. It's a piece of weaponry that no Helldiver has ever encountered. This peculiar item has an unfamiliar design and structure that doesn't match any known specifications or blueprints within the Helldivers' comprehensive database.
Its existence raises numerous questions about its origins and functions. The fact that it has never been seen or used by any Helldiver hints at either clandestine operations or an entirely new and undiscovered faction.
The intrigue surrounding this mysterious device deepens as there appears to be no historical records or intelligence reports mentioning such a weapon, further complicating the mystery for those attempting to understand its purpose and potential implications.
At the risk of giving away too much information, it's worth noting that this particular item isn't currently available within the game. This absence has sparked a flurry of speculation among players, with some convinced that it serves as a subtle hint of future content yet to be unveiled, while others suspect it might simply be an oversight or an error.
The lively debate continues, leaving plenty of room for interpretation and conjecture. Ultimately, I'll leave it up to you to draw your own conclusions about the true nature of this intriguing omission.
This event adds to a series of missteps by Sony, dating back to the notorious PlayStation Network issue earlier in the year. At the beginning of May, Helldivers 2's publisher, Sony, declared that Steam players would imminently need to integrate a PlayStation Network (PSN) account to continue their game. This decision was met with a barrage of critical reviews from a deeply unsatisfied player base and the game's withdrawal from sale in 177 nations without PSN access, leading Sony to revise its strategy.
