Almost six months after its release, this popular game-as-a-service remains one of the year’s most popular titles. Despite this, fans have been requesting more content to make the gameplay experience more dynamic and entertaining.

One of the most common requests is for the Helldivers 2 Illuminate faction to become a reality, allowing players to wage war against these alien beings. 

A user on X took advantage of this leak to post alleged screenshots on Reddit, showing what these beings will look like in the game. According to this user, the final forms of these enemies are not yet complete, but they provide insight into the studio’s direction. One of these enemies seems straight out of the movie Alien.

The studio is finally listening to fan suggestions and is about to release a significant free update to attract players back. Helldivers 2 has already hinted at the addition of new enemies, mission classes, and even a new difficulty level for dedicated players.

Despite these announcements, most of the community is eagerly awaiting the reveal of a new race of enemies that appeared in the first title of the franchise.

According to new leaks, the popular space horror saga Alien directly inspired one enemy model in Helldivers 2. This user posted various leaks on Reddit, describing each one.

Fans are very excited to see the final form of these enemies, as well as when the studio will add them to the game so they can face them. This alien race wields very futuristic and powerful weapons. The fans want to see what these enemies can do.

The user who shared these leaks clarified that many are preliminary versions of how the enemies will look once they are in the game. But everything suggests that the Helldivers 2 Illuminate faction is closer than ever to entering the game.

For weeks, players have been complaining that the title keeps repeating the same content and is quite monotonous. These leaks excite fans. This alien race will be the most difficult to face.

One characteristic of the studio is that it takes its time when announcing new things. According to the leaked images, it seems there will be a new zone of planets inhabited solely by these anticipated enemies.

This alien race is notable for possessing a variety of forms, some even resembling humanoids, much like the Bots. The saga’s first title provided these enemies with a futuristic arsenal that included dark fluid as a weapon.

The user who leaked this content says the studio will likely take its time to finalize these enemies. Most likely, some reference to their arrival in the game won’t appear until the end of the year.

Escalation of Freedom is the first of many free updates that will bring a new wave of content for players to enjoy. Arrowhead Game Studios is 100% focused on keeping the community engaged.
