Developer Arrowhead has revealed the next premium Warbond Helldivers 2 players can look forward to dumping time into, bringing an assortment of jungle-themed war gear designed for close-quarters combat. Prepare to get up close and personal with Viper Commandos from 13th June.
Along with nifty camo armour sets that leave your guns bare, rugged capes, and a dashing beret, the big ticket items include the AR-23A Liberator Carbine primary weapon, which boasts a higher rate of fire and increased handling at the cost of additional recoil. The SG-22 Bushwacker is what we've been waiting for: a sawn-off, triple-barrelled shotgun for your secondary slot with two firing modes, single or triple blast. New armour sets will feature the Peak Physique passive, which improves weapon handling and melee damage. There are also K-2 Throwing Knives, offering a silent alternative for your grenade slot for those who prefer their work wet.
Another victory for Super Earth

I really need to get back to the front lines ASAP. I've been too busy drifting around forest roads and wet,Welsh coastlines in stupidly over powered rally cars. I hope the
