With the latest Warbond here, players want to know if they can use cheats to sidestep Helldivers 2’s challenges and get the best gear. Its controversial anti-cheat implementation has also been a matter of discussion among fans. Read on to know if the game has cheats.
What cheats are in Helldivers 2?
Players have already used infinite ammo/health cheats in addition to maximising Samples and other resources.
Can you cheat in Helldivers 2?
Yes, Helldivers 2 has unofficial cheats to download. Despite nProtect GameGuard being used as a kernel-level anti-cheat measure, players have managed to mess with the game’s balance and the larger-scale Galactic War that is powered by the operations of Helldivers. Options like Cheat Engine give players options like infinite health, infinite ammo, and even resources like Samples in Helldivers 2. Note that using cheats can result in a ban as there’s a high chance of being spotted by anti-cheat while using them. You can report cheaters by raising a support ticket. Some mod menus also claim to offer all the gear in-game, letting you skip the Warbond progression entirely.
Have Helldivers 2 players hacked the game?
Some players have indeed been able to hack in Helldivers 2. Players on Reddit weren’t too happy about cheaters who used the Recoilless Rifle with infinite ammo. As a weapon that is usually cumbersome and reliant on a friend to reload it, this hack trivialized the game’s difficulty levels. Cheating in a PvE game is bizarre, especially since Helldivers 2 does a solid job with its cooperative elements. It’s an exploit that may have already been patched out.
Another cheater gave random players bonus Samples, ruining their experience with the ship module progression system by hacking Helldivers 2. Perks like unlimited stamina, no reload, unlimited grenades, unlimited shield, and unlimited mission timer can hurt teammates who aren’t using these cheats. Use them at your own risk.
You can borrow powerful gear from friends instead
If you team up with a player who has more gear unlocked than you, they can call in support weapons for you to use.
Does Helldivers 2 have a cheat table?
While players have come up with cheat tables, these don’t always refer to cheats. Instead, they can refer to the stratagem codes in Helldivers 2 that you input to call in powerful items or attacks. Note that you need to have unlocked these beforehand before summoning them. As for actual cheat engine tables and mod menus, players have yet to find third-party software that works right away.
Does Helldivers 2 have a trainer or save editor?
Currently, a Helldivers 2 trainer is available but we would advise against using this cheat menu. Trainers can grant you perks like infinite ammo or health in addition to faster stratagem cooldowns. One Helldivers 2 trainer from Cheathappens even promises ‘Fast Attempt Server Login’ but we haven’t verified these claims. Developer Arrowhead Game Studios is doing its best to minimize cheaters so expect these hack menu options to be disabled when a new patch comes around.
‘Players might get suspended or outright banned for using cheats’
Having a save editor is unlikely as Helldivers 2 is an online game. It requires a constant internet connection, making save editors nearly impossible to create. This ensures that the Galactic War in the game is influenced only by the players’ actions and not by malicious means. We will update this page if the game eventually gets more cheats of any kind on PC and PS5 down the line.
