The original Helldivers had a pilotable EXO-44 walker exosuit that was a favorite amongst fans and it looks to be returning in Helldivers 2, though with a bit of a caveat. It won’t be available at launch. Instead, mechs will return as a post-launch update with no release date currently available.
Recently, Arrowhead Studios gave players a look at the game’s Galactic War feature, which is a global campaign that all players will participate in as they complete missions in Helldivers 2. The game has a sort of dungeon master that will periodically set modifiers to give players bonuses or handicaps when undertaking missions.
Helldivers 2 releases on the PlayStation 5 and Microsoft Windows platforms on February 8.
