Surprise! In a big twist, players of Helldivers 2 are now being asked to destroy something they helped create not long ago. About seven weeks back, players were given a mission to switch on the Terminid Control System.
The plan was to lock up the pesky bugs forever. It worked out fine, kinda. But now, as many players guessed, things have taken a turn.
A new mission in Helldivers 2, starting on April 29th, wants players to wreck the Terminid Control System. The game says bugs are causing trouble on some planets despite efforts to get rid of them.
Players must go to Erata Prime, Fenrir 3, and Turing to smash the Control System on all three planets. They’ll earn 50 Medals for each. Plus, there are new missions on these planets, a bonus from the game developers. It softens the blow of undoing their earlier work.
Just before this new mission, players completed another task. They got a fancy weapon called the Airburst Rocket Launcher.
But it came with a sad twist. An entire planet got messed up to unlock this weapon. To make up for it, the government sent “potato baskets” to the families of those affected.
