Helldivers 2 joins PlayStation Plus Game Catalog today, Devoid of Liberty update out now

Helldivers 2 is now available to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members through the Game Catalog, marking its inclusion in the subscription service starting today. The game’s latest update, Devoid of Liberty, introduces a new Void-themed campaign where players must battle mutated threats and reclaim planets under Illuminate control. The update expands gameplay with reconnaissance missions, new secondary objectives, and additional enemy types, including the fast-moving Wretch and heavily armored Crusher. Players can also unlock all 300 ranks of security access and receive support from SEAF platoons, which provide medical aid and morale boosts during operations.

The Devoid of Liberty update tasks players with destroying Illuminate spires and gateways, completing data reconnaissance, and infiltrating enemy structures while navigating hazardous Void mutations. New secondary objectives include eradicating mutated organisms, extracting materials for research, and opening secondary extraction zones to expedite squad evacuations. The update also introduces hideously mutated creatures emerging from the Void, posing significant threats to weaker fighters and requiring strategic countermeasures. Intelligence reports suggest these mutations intensify closer to the Void’s core, increasing the challenge for Helldivers.

A community-wide challenge has been launched alongside the update, urging players to eliminate 500 million enemies by August 18 to unlock four exclusive Helldiver PlayStation avatars. This collective effort aims to rally the player base toward a shared goal while celebrating the game’s cooperative gameplay. Players who participate can also access special merchandise through the Helldivers 2 Super Merch store, where in-game achievements unlock exclusive items. The store is accessible via the Helldivers 2 Super Merch platform, though availability varies by region.

The Devoid of Liberty update and Helldivers 2’s inclusion in the PlayStation Plus catalog reflect ongoing efforts to expand the game’s content and accessibility. Players must have an active PlayStation Plus subscription and internet access to participate in online features. The update and catalog inclusion may differ by region, with regional variations in available games and streaming options. Terms and conditions apply to the PlayStation Plus service, including recurring subscription fees.
