Helldivers 2 players, it's finally over. Loyal Helldivers have successfully defended our beloved, democracy-loving home of Super Earth from the tyranny of the Illuminate after their catastrophic invasion.
After days of fighting, our latest Major Order to hold Super Earth has ended in victory, with a new dispatch from High Command proclaiming: "The Illuminate have retreated from Super Earth battlespace. The Heart of Democracy has been defended. The Battle of Super Earth is won."
Sadly, our win hasn't been without casualties. "The devastation wrought upon our home is immense," High Command says, with only two Mega Cities – Prosperity City and Equality-on-Sea – still standing. "The remainder have been vacated by the enemy, having suffered catastrophic damage at their hands."
What's more, it was earlier confirmed that the President of Super Earth is dead, having been "killed in action by the Illuminate during the siege of Prosperity City." At the very least, his sacrifice wasn't in vain, with victory secured hours after his death.
Not to alarm anyone, but it also sounds like the Illuminate have avoided the full, concentrated force of our wrath, having managed to flee rather than being wiped off the Galactic Map entirely.
"Remaining Illuminate forces were last observed making FTL jumps from Super Earth orbit," High Command says. "The enemy has also vacated New Haven, Pilen V, and Widow's Harbor, burning the surface of those planets as they fled. No stations detect Illuminate forces – the enemy has gone into hiding." Rest assured, however, Super Earth is confident that "they will be found."
Ultimately, though, the good news still stands – "After days of nonstop fighting, Super Earth stands." It might not have been easy, and we lost some beloved Mega Cities along the way, but "the Helldivers have achieved victory."
