Sony Confirms (Officially This Time) Helldivers 2’s Next Premium Warbond, Freedom’s Flame

ign.com:

After Sony itself accidentally revealed the premium warbond Freedom’s Flame for Helldivers 2, it has now made it official alongside an August 8 release date.

The theme for Freedom’s Flame is, predictably, burn damage and survivability, with new weapons, armor, emotes, capes, and skins all set to hit the game next week, Mitch Ayre, Junior Community Manager at developer Arrowhead Games Studios, said in a post on the PlayStation Blog.

As with previous Premium Warbonds, expect Freedom’s Flame 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.
