The latest Helldivers 2 Warbond has been revealed, with the Helldivers 2 Redacted Regiment set to arrive next week on January 20, 2026.

Helldivers 2 is on its way to its second anniversary next month and Arrowhead is still going strong with regular updates. In fact, the fanbase is currently shaking in their boots at the promised chaos in the next update, as the studio CEO teased it by saying "a lot of Helldivers will die." Oh.

It could well be Super Earth conspiracy theorists going off on a tangent, as they say it's probably got something to do with alleged Illuminate structures appearing in Super Earth media, but given there are many such cases of Super Earth being infiltrated, it's perhaps that's what our beloved leadership's latest Warbond is showing off.

Sony confirmed the Helldivers 2: Redacted Regiment Warbond will be launching in a week on Tuesday, January 20, and will feature some stealthy new kit for maximum sneaking. Headlining is the R-72 Censor precision rifle, which is undetectable by enemies thanks to its handy suppressor, or if you need to shoot a little faster (but still be sneaky), there's an AR-59 Suppressor assault rifle.

There's also a nice new secondary weapon, the P-35 Re-Educator, which shoots a dart filled with chemical agent which "induces delirium in organic targets and delirium-like malfunction in inorganic ones." Alongside this are a great duo, a new C4 Pack stratagem, and a TM-01 Lure Mine, so you can lure enemies over and blow them up for maximum stealth.

  • Helldivers 2 Helldivers 2 promises "the next evolution of Major Orders," an increased level cap and more

And of course, there's a bunch of new cosmetic items with two dark suits that scream stealth, and as Super Earth's transmission puts it, "The enemies of Democracy will have to get real close before they can spot you." Of course, your stealth is only really effective when your squadmates don't accidentally blow you up.

Helldivers 2 CCO would rather add "sequel-level features," like 8-player missions and bigger open-world maps, than outright make Helldivers 3
