What is the Helldivers 2 level cap? Max level change explained
radiotimes.comFans of Helldivers 2 have got a lot more grinding to do if they want to hit the max level cap, with the game's latest update moving the galactic goalposts in a major way in terms of your individual character's progression.
From the arrival of Helldivers 2 mechs to the Cutting Edge Warbond, the developers from Arrowhead Game Studios haven't been shy in giving players new toys in the weeks since the game's smash hit launch onto PS5 and PC.

That's right, folks: The Helldivers 2 max level just tripled in size! This is sure to shake up the fandom somewhat.
This change was made in a Helldivers 2 update today (Tuesday 2nd April). The official numerical designation for this update, if you were wondering, marks this as patch 01.000.200.

Only time will tell how this situation plays out, but it should be fun to watch!
