After the officialHelldivers 2Twitter account announced an in-game party forselect Class A Helldiverson May 13, many players have begun to speculate and theorize that this so-called party may actually be setting the stage for the game’s next big shake-up. However, before that day arrives, May 8 is set to potentially give players a sneak peek into what lies in store.
Helldivers 2 Players Will Want to Mark May 8 On Their Calendars
Before announcing the party that’s set to take place on Widow’s Harbor,Arrowhead Game Studios gaveHelldivers 2players an updateon the game’s progress. The official statement says, “You may have noticed that the gap between our major updates and Warbond releases is a little longer this time. But we’re happy to say we’ll be announcing our next Warbond on May 8, and there will be more exciting news to come not long after.”
This “exciting news” that’s planned to come shortly after could take place during the Widow’s Harbor party, but only time will tell. Right now, though, May 8 is in the spotlight, as the veil will finally be lifted on whatthe next big Warbondis set to be. The details remain mysterious, but the anticipation is palpable. The arrival of new Warbonds is always an exciting time forHelldivers 2players, as it brings fresh items, weapons, Stratagems, and armor into the mix. Considering that the updates have been more spread out this year, this teased Warbond could potentially hold some major upgrades.
Since the arrival of the Illuminate,Helldivers 2players have faced some of their biggest challenges yet.
May 8 Teases Excitement, But Trouble Could Be On the Horizon
The promise of getting a sneak peek at new equipment on May 8 is thrilling, but it could ultimately be a way to gear up players for the potentially harrowing events ahead. The May 13 party is in celebration ofHelldivers 2players finally holding backthe planet-killing Meridian Singularity, but the location of Widow’s Harbor for these festivities is ominous.
Widow’s Harbor is located quite close to the Meridian Singularity, so if there was evera perfect time for the Illuminate to strike once again, it would be on May 13. This Warbond may be arriving simply because players will need all the firepower and equipment they can get. The same tweet revealing the May 8 announcement also stated, “You’ll hear more from us soon. Until then: stand up straight, polish those boots and keep that uniform in tip-top condition, Helldivers.You’ll be needing them for the fight to come.”
The May 13 celebration party is taking place at Widow’s Harbor’s Free Springs Retreat. An official ad for the event even teases drinks and music for Helldivers to revel in.
Helldivers 2 Players May Be in for a Rude Awakening
Based on the official tweet, it’s clear that something big is on the way. What that is, though, is the biggest question of all. Since its launch,Helldivers 2has kept players guessingabout what awaits them on the battlefield. Once May 8 gets here, there may be further hints at what May 13’s party on Window’s Harbor is all about. Until then, Helldivers might want to prepare.
