Helldivers 2's next Premium Warbond arrives in April next week

Helldivers 2 players will get the Democratic Detonation Premium Warbond on April 11. It will bring a host of new weapons, along with fresh capes and emotes. Given this is paid content, these items won't provide any undue advantages but will surely give its wielders a new edge while liberating planets.

Helldivers are currently battling Automaton Legion, after a valiant victory on the Malevelon Creek. The current Major Order tasks Helldivers 2 players to liberate all Automaton-held planets - Tibit, Durgen, and Maia.

• BR-14 Adjudicator Rife - Deliver righteous judgement to your enemies with accuracy. This armour-penetrating assault rifle is best used against smaller groups.
• R-36 Eruptor Rifle - Keep your distance… this bolt-action rifle fires jet-assisted shells that explode shrapnel in all directions upon impact. All directions. Even your face.
• CB-9 Exploding Crossbow - Kaboom! Enjoy powerful exploding bolts that dish out max damage upon direct impact. Gravity must be accounted for when aiming.

• Expert Extraction Pilot Booster - Need to get out of a jam fast? This booster lowers the time it takes for the extraction shuttle to reach the extraction beacon. Home in time for dinner.
