Here’s everything we know about the Helldivers 2 Premium Warbond: Cutting Edge, including its release date, price, and items on offer.
Helldivers 2 Premium Warbond Cutting Edge release date
The Helldivers 2 Warbond is set to launch on Thursday, March 14, 2024. If you purchase a Premium Warbond, they won’t expire unless you finish clearing them. That means if you didn’t get a chance to finish your last Warbond, you can pick this one up and complete them whenever you have the time.
Helldivers 2 Premium Warbond Cutting Edge price
While the first Helldivers 2 Premium Warbond was sold for 1,000 Supercredits ($9.99 / £7.99 on Steam and the PlayStation Store), it’s unclear how much this Warbond is going to cost. There’s a rumor that the price per Warbond will vary depending on the items on offer, but we can’t find a source for this.
Helldivers 2 Premium Warbond Cutting Edge items
Designed with “high-voltage vibes” in mind, the Cutting Edge Warbond features ultra-futuristic items custom-built to shred through robots and bugs alike. We also know the Warbond includes capes, player cards, utility boosters, and emotes to ensure your soldier is looking as swagged-out as possible. If your outfit isn’t drippy, you aren’t going to be able to spread democracy effectively.
Here’s a look at some items revealed in the Warbond: Cutting Edge trailer:
- EX Prototype (Armor)
- Capes
- Arc-12 Blitzer (Shotgun)
- Las-16 Sickle (Energy-Based)
- SG-8P Punisher Plasma (Shotgun)
- Las-7 Dagger (Pistol)
- G-23 Stun (Grenade)
EX Prototype (Armor Sets)
This armor set is designed for players using electricity-based weapons, featuring a rubber underlayer for insulation. It’s been said the Prototype armor set took over 12 years of research to build, as well as several billion Super Credits.
Capes
Spruce up your drip with three new capes, each with matching colors and designs to the latest and returning armor sets. It’s worth checking out some of your older armor sets to see which one of the new capes can take your outfits to a whole new level.
Arc-12 Blitzer (Shotgun)
Send a bolt of lightning towards multiple opponents using the Arc-12 Blitzer. The Arc-12 Blitzer’s ability to damage multiple enemies at once separates it from the other guns in its category. While the weapon is listed as a shotgun, it looks as though players will be able to fire from a further distance compared to most of the shotguns in Helldivers 2.
Las-16 Sickle (Energy-Based)
Put a large hole through the armor of incoming robots with the Las-16 Sickle, a laser rifle that never needs to reload, though you do have to consider how much heat it produces.
SG-8P Punisher Plasma (Shotgun)
Another shotgun, and this one is just as not-shotgunny as the Arc-12 Blitzer. The SG-8P Punisher Plasma fires off blue balls of explosive plasma, capable of blowing up multiple enemies in a single shot.
Las-7 Dagger (Pistol)
Pistols aren’t the most powerful weapons in the game, but the Las-7 Dagger looks like an interesting option when you find yourself in a bind. This new pistol fires off a powerful orange laser, capable of killing the odd grunt enemy in a single clip.
G-23 Stun (Grenade)
Teach your robot enemies an electrifying lesson with the G-23 Stun grenade, instantly stopping multiple enemies in their tracks.
