The Exciting New Chapter of Super Earth’s History: Helldivers 2
Discover more about the history of Super Earth and its brave defenders before the release of Helldivers 2 on February 8th. Additionally, we share the first news that the story will continue with free updates to Helldivers 2 after its launch.
Helldivers 2 takes place a hundred years after the events of the first game, where Super Earth emerged victorious against its adversaries: the deadly insectoid Terminids, the grotesque Cyborgs, and the enigmatic Illuminates. After defeating their enemies and winning the Galactic War, a period of peace and prosperity ensued. The Helldivers, Super Earth’s elite fighting force, were disbanded.
Super Earth entered the calmest and most prosperous years of its history.
The same faster-than-light travel technology, thanks to the Illuminates, that allowed Super Earth access to the galaxy was used for colonization. This era was known as the Great Democratisation. FTL technology depends on a steady supply of the valuable E-710 resource, found in the decomposing bodies of Terminids. Therefore, Super Earth started mass breeding Terminids.
The success of Super Earth relies on the hard work of its citizens.
In a shocking turn of events, the Terminids have escaped from their farms and started spreading throughout the galaxy. The Super Earth Armed Forces are trying to isolate them on breeding planets, but they are stretched thin – therefore, when a mysterious new enemy joins the fight, Super Earth has no choice but to rally the Helldivers once again.
The Automatons are fully mechanized soldiers, unlike anything seen before. But their emblem is hauntingly familiar…
Now, it’s up to you, Helldiver, to regain control of Super Earth’s colonies once and for all. You will fight against these nefarious enemies not only on the front lines but also as Super Earth seeks a solution to the Terminid plague.
Super Earth calls upon the Helldivers once again.
As Helldivers battle Super Earth’s enemies, you are not only changing the face of the galaxy but also the course of its history. Super Earth will issue global, time-limited orders, unleashing challenges for all players to cooperate and achieve large-scale objectives that will shape the development of the story. This means that the narrative is not something that happens to players, but something players themselves must actively achieve.
Rather than relying on quotes from the original article, here is a descriptive sentence that captures the essence of the writer’s perspective: “The distinctiveness of Helldivers 2’s story lies in the way it is driven by the player community. Planning for this is a tremendous challenge – we have an idea of what we think will happen, but ultimately, we have no control over what the players will do. What I find cool as a player, I find truly terrifying as a writer.”
As for the upcoming events in the story, all we can say is that the galaxy will look significantly different a few months from now than it does today. – Stephen Flowers, Game Writer, Arrowhead Game Studios
