Secret tease suggests Helldivers 2 will be getting third faction soon

One missing Helldivers 2 faction from the original 2015 title appears to be about to drop into the sequel amid its runaway success this month, with players convinced a secret broadcast is teasing that they are about to arrive.

After the Automaton front saw a sudden expansion in the wake of a fresh assault by the mechanized faction, keen-eyed players spotted an interesting headline tucked away in the news ticker of an in-game broadcast. While the main report focused on Super Earth’s response to the Automatons, the headline in question reads, “Rumors of Illuminate sightings are work of dissidents.” It’s one of the only mentions of The Illuminate—one of the major enemies in Arrowhead Game Studios’ original title— in Helldivers 2 but the fact they’ve been mentioned at all suggests the alien civilization could still find their way onto the star chart in the future.
