Just a few days ago, Arrowhead Game Studios announced that a new Warbond called “Cutting Edge” will be available in Helldivers 2 this coming week. This will feature new weapons, armors and more that players can earn. It seems we won’t have to wait until then to see some of the Helldivers unreleased armor and weapons, as a ton of info about ’em has surfaced online.
Over on Twitter/X, user CiaphusCaim has posted a slew of images about the new armor, weapons and more! Not only that, but there’s even gameplay of it as well, and even the new weapons’ stats! According to the person who shared the info on Twitter, the info is from a “friend” that has access to a “dev server.”
Check out the images in the gallery (scroll left to right for more).

It's pretty good if you're in a swarm. Just like. Dead kissing that swarm though. Damage fall-off is really bad imo. pic.twitter.com/akQcheH1MM

Same as with any leaks, treat this one with a grain of salt, though having said that, this does look like the real deal.
We’re expecting a new title update to be released alongside the new Warbond, and once that’s live, we’ll let our readers know.
In other Helldivers 2 news, in case you didn’t know, the EXO-45 Mech is now available in-game!
