Helldivers 2’s Next Premium Warbond Is Democratic Detonation, Adds New Weapons, Capes, and More
Helldivers 2’s next Premium Warbond launches April 11, Sony has announced.
Democratic Detonation, as detailed on the PlayStation Blog, includes a number of new weapons, boosters, and armor pieces, as well as new cosmetics. Highlights include an Exploding Crossbow, a Grenade Pistol, and the Expert Extraction Pilot Booster, which lowers the time it takes for the extraction shuttle to reach the extraction beacon.
As with previous Premium Warbonds, expect Democratic Detonation to cost 1,000 Super Credits. While you can earn Super Credits from gameplay and the Warbond itself, you can also buy them for real-world money. Via the in-game shop, 1,000 Super Credits costs $9.99. Premium Warbonds do not expire, so you can work your way through them at your own pace safe in the knowledge their items will remain available.
