Helldivers 2 Into The Unjust Update: Launch Times, New Content & More

The Helldivers 2 Into the Unjust update launches today with new missions, enemies and more – here’s what we know and when you can play it.

Helldivers 2’s next major update, Into the Unjust, is set to launch on September 2 (today), bringing players to the frontlines of Hive Worlds to face new environments, enemies, and mission types.

The Helldivers 2 Into the Unjust update expands the war against the Terminids with a focus on Hive Worlds. These hostile planets are cloaked by the Gloom, a spreading shroud of spore clouds that has warped the environment and spawned new threats. Squads will fight both above ground and in twisting underground tunnels where the Super Destroyer cannot provide full support.

Will this be another Malevelon Creek situation? Only Joel (our saviour or harbinger of doom, depending on who you ask) can tell.

Helldivers 2 Into The Unjust Update: What’s New?

New mission types in the Helldivers 2 Into The Unjust update include descending into the caves to locate and destroy the Hive Lung, the purported source of the Gloom, as well as defending the massive mobile oil rig as it traverses Hive World terrain to drill for resources. Additional sub-objectives and challenges will also appear across these new locations.

Alongside these missions are new enemy variants. Subterranean Terminids such as Bile Spewers and burrowing Chargers will attack from below, while Dragonroaches dive from the sky, launching corrosive bile attacks. Reports suggest even more formidable creatures may be hidden deep within the Hive Worlds.
