Helldivers 2 is set to expand again with its next major update, Into the Unjust, launching September 2. Players will face new missions, enemies, and environments, with the Dust Devils Premium Warbond arriving shortly after on September 4.
Watch the video below, which includes updates and commentaries from the creators and developers.
Entering the Gloom
The update takes players into the Gloom, a fog-filled shroud covering Hive Worlds. Squads will encounter massive Terminid structures, underground cave networks, and the Hive Lung—the source of the thickening fog. With limited support from Super Destroyers, teams must rely on careful planning and coordination to survive.
New Enemies Above and Below
Into the Unjust introduces new subterranean threats. Terminid Warriors, Bile Spewers, and Chargers will burrow underground to ambush squads, erupting from beneath their feet. A new flying menace, the Dragonroach, rains down burning bile while evading counterattacks. Reports also point to larger horrors lurking in the Hive Worlds waiting to be taken down.
New Mission Types
Helldivers will tackle new objectives, including:
- Mobile Oil Rig Defense – escort and protect a drilling rig as it traverses Hive World terrain.
- Hive Lung Destruction – descend deep underground to eliminate the source of the Gloom.
Optional and secondary objectives add further challenges for squads aiming to push the infestation back.
Dust Devils Premium Warbond
Launching September 4, the Dust Devils Warbond provides new gear for Helldivers fighting in extreme conditions. Highlights include:
- Weapons & Stratagems
- AR-2 Coyote – assault rifle with incendiary ammunition.
- G-7 Pineapple – cluster frag grenade.
- S-11 Speargun – fires heavy projectiles releasing gas clouds.
- EAT-700 Expendable Napalm – single-use napalm cluster missile.
- MS-11 Solo Silo – deployable missile silo with handheld targeting remote.
- Armors and Cosmetics

- DS-191 Scorpion – desert-themed set with the Windswept Wayfinder cape.
- Capes, player cards, emotes, titles, and the “Rattlesnake” vehicle pattern.
The Desert Stormer passive provides resistance to fire, gas, acid, and arc damage, along with increased throw range.

Helldivers 2 players can prepare to take the fight directly into Hive Worlds when the update drops, with fresh missions, mutated enemies, and new gear to help squads survive the Gloom.
