Rumor: Helldivers 2 Leak Shows New Exosuit Mech

A recent Helldivers 2 leak shows a highly durable mech called the EXO-49 Emancipator. Helldivers 2 features different types of stratagems, including exosuits that provide players with assistance in combat.

Many agree that Exosuits are undeniably one of the most fun stratagems available. However, they can be ineffective against some types of enemies. Last month, when the EXO-45 Patriot mech was added to Helldivers 2, players went on Reddit to voice their disappointment about the newest stratagem, claiming it can't stand a chance against heavily
