UPDATE: Get ready, Helldivers 2 players, it looks like you're about to be sent to liberate some mechs
Oh, and here's a first look at the new warbond coming on March 14.
UPDATE(7 March, 4:00PM GMT): Arrowhead's now confirmed that liberating Tien Kwan to save its exosuit facility from automatons is Helldivers 2's latest Major Order, so go help secure those mechs!
Following an official comfirmation that they were coming soon earlier this week, it's now looking like Helldivers 2's mechs are finally ready to be rolled out into the game, though you and your fellow hardened soldiers battling for Space Earth may well have some work to do before you can add one to your arsenal
Yup, the vehicular backup that might just make a difference in the battle for galactic supremacy - especially now that some weapons controvrsially aren't quite as effective as they used to be looks like it's about to actually arrive in-game.
In a tweet, Arrowhead Game Studios has declared: "THIS IS NOT A DRILL! Our factories are under attack, halting all output. Helldivers have been deployed to liberate Tien Kwan!"
What does that mean? Well, it looks like you and your squadmates will soon be deploying to Tien Kwan with the express goal of unlocking mechs by liberating it. As of writing, the planet's liberation percentage is hovering around the 50% mark, with players having lost ground recently.
That's all the info Arrowhead looks to have provided and that we can imply on the mechs for now, but it has also released some info on the new warbond - dubbed "Cutting Edge" - that's set to arrive in the game on March 14 via a PlayStation blog post penned by community manager Katherine Baskin. "Packed with high-voltage vibes, Cutting Edge gives you the chance to enhance your loadout of liberty with ultra-futuristic armour, guns that spit lightning, super stylish capes and epic emotes," the post reads, with a fresh trailer for the warbond - which you can watch below - offering a look at a lot of this new gear.
