A new leak reveals several weapons coming soon to Helldivers 2, while also corroborating another new mech and an armored buggy similar to Halo's iconic Warthog. Helldivers 2 developers at Arrowhead Game Studios are expected to reveal a new roadmap in the near future, giving players an idea of what's to come for the popular third-person shooter.

Helldivers 2 sales continue to perform strongly as the game approaches its first month after launch.

Multiple updates were released to fix matchmaking and server issues, and the roadmap was revised to reflect the developer's new plans.

A YouTube video filled with leaks about new Helldivers 2 vehicles and weapons was recently published by GameOverDeo, giving fans an inside look into what may come in future updates. Firstly, the leaked footage shows a new pilotable mech, which corroborates a recent Helldivers 2 gameplay leak. The mech comes equipped with a heavy machine gun and a powerful missile launcher, so players can expect to quickly clear out minor enemies while piloting it.
