Helldivers 2 ESBR Rating and Summary Fire Out; Mentions Dismemberment and Players Can Continue Attacking Defeated Enemies

The official Helldivers 2 ESRB rating and summary have surfaced today, and it offers a little bit more gameplay details than expected from your typical ratings reveal.

According to the ESRB (Entertainment Software Ratings Board) summary, players will be able to continue attacking defeated enemies, and you can also kill civilians in rescue missions as well.

Helldivers 2 ESRB Rating: “M” for Mature, cites Blood and Gore, Intense Violence.

Rating Summary

This is an action game in which players assume the role of soldiers attempting to win an intergalactic war. From a third-person perspective, players use pistols, assault rifles, sniper rifles, flamethrowers, turrets, grenades, and rocket launchers to shoot and kill enemies (e.g., robots, cyborgs, giant insects). Combat is accompanied by realistic gunfire, cries of pain, and blood-splatter effects; some areas of the battlefield depict bloodstains and dismembered corpses. Players can continue to attack defeated enemies, causing additional blood-splatter effects and dismemberment. Players can also shoot and kill human civilians during rescue missions.

Helldivers 2 still has no firm release date, but you can read up about its loadout alongside other details and gameplay footage here.

With the game’s official ESBR rating out, this could mean that a release date announcement is imminent. Once we know more about that, we’ll let our readers know.
