It seems the last Helldivers 2 update brought more than just mechs, as reports throughout the galaxy have begun spreading quickly, claiming that there are now flying bugs in the game. Yet despite the evidence, Arrowhead Game Studios denies their existence, marking those spreading this lie as traitors to democracy.
Things have been pretty hectic in Helldivers 2 since Mechs became available last week. The war to spread democracy has been filled with many sacrifices, especially for the ongoing battle for Malvelon Creek. Yet this past week, we saw additional support arrive in the form of mechs, giving the Helldivers some much-needed firepower against the Automatons.
While players begin to gain ground on one front, it’s the other, the one against The Terminids, that many are starting to worry about as players have begun encountering bugs that can fly. Don’t believe us? Well here’s your hard evidence.
Oh weird, there are three mushrooms. Oh hello there, Cock Rock. OH SWEET LIBERTY! WHAT ARE THOSE!??

Despite this, it seems the governing powers of Super Earth have denied these claims, saying that everyone knows bugs can’t fly and that this is slander against Super Earth in an attempt to brainwash residents.
I've heard rumors of flying bugs in @helldivers2. I want to officially refute such preposterous claims.

Everyone knows that "Bugs can't fly".
And I'm not alone in thinking this. The Ministry of Truth agrees that this is propaganda from bug sympathizers that want to brainwash…
Being serious for a second, gotta love how Arrowhead is handling all these reports. As a fellow Helldiver, it’s awesome to see content like this just spring up out of nowhere, as it truly adds to the game’s narrative, and also helps push that this is a living and breathing universe.
What other surprises Arrowhead may have in store for us will be something we’ll have to all find out ourselves and with a new content update arriving this Thursday, March 14, we’re expecting plenty of surprises to be included.
