In a new blog post today, PlayStation confirmed the details and release date for the Freedom’s Flame Warbond, coming to Helldivers 2 on August 8, 2024.
Freedom’s Flame will add “fresh emotes, capes, and skins,” as well as a variety of new equipment. That includes a SG-451 Cookout pump action shotgun, the FLAM-66 Torcher flamethrower, and P-72 Crisper.
Players can also find the new I-09 Heatseeker and I-102 Draconaught armor. These introduce the new inflammable passive that gives “75% damage resistance to fire.”
The official announcement closely follows Sony’s own accidental leak for the Warbond. However, the leak did not feature the specific details unveiled today. Fans also got a look at the new Warbond in action with a cinematic teaser.
The most recent Helldivers 2 Warbond was Viper Commandos, which released in June 2024.
