New Helldivers 2 Freedom’s Flame Warbond will let players walk through the fires of Hellmire next month

After having previously been leaked a few weeks ago, Arrowhead Game Studios has finally revealed the next Warbond that will be coming to Helldivers 2, titled Freedom’s Flame. This Warbond will focus on fire and it looks to be what the community has been asking for.

In a blog post, Arrowhead Game Studios has revealed the next Warbond for Helldivers 2 titled Freedom’s Flame. As the name suggests, this Warbond will be focused on fire, including bringing the much-anticipated and highly-anticipated fire-resistant armor perk. It has also been revealed that the Freedom’s Flame Warbond will be released on August 8th, two days after the Escalation of Freedom update.

“Incinerate everything standing in your path with new weaponry almost too hot to handle; survive the heat of battle with lifesaving armor; and burn brightly across the cosmos with fresh emotes, capes, and skins. Right now, swarms of disgusting bugs and packs of mechanized monstrosities are invading innocent worlds.”

The new Helldivers 2 Freedom’s Flame Warbond includes new armor sets, weapons, skins, utilities, banners, capes, emotes, victory poses, and a player title, as is the case with other Warbonds. Like previous Warbonds, Freedom’s Flame will cost 1,000 Super Credits, which can be purchased from the store or earned in-game. Here is everything that is included.

Primary Weapons:

SG-451 Cookout
Burn, baby, burn! A pump action shotgun that unleashes a burst of incendiary phosphorus pellets at your helpless enemies.

FLAM-66 Torcher
A lightweight flamethrower shooting pressurized fuel through a nozzle into a roaring, open flame. Sounds safe. It isn’t. Watch where you’re standing.

Secondary Weapons:

P-72 Crisper
A flamethrower that fits in your pocket for the Helldiver on the go! What will those guys think of next? This lovely compact handgun projects a jet of freedom flames over short distances.

Booster:

Fiery Drop – Firebomb Hellpods
Scorch the earth (and anything else) below as you touch down with attitude and ignite the dropsite.

Armor Sets:

I-09 Heatseeker
Proudly display the burnished blood-red plates that were forged in righteous fire, like the heroes they were wrought to protect — a true vision of democracy.

I-102 Draconaught
Ah, there’s nothing quite like those satisfying screeches as the enemies of freedom burn. Enjoy it all in this 14-cm sheathed silica fiber foam armor with an exclusive tube-to-ear feature.

Armor Passive
Inflammable! Enjoy 75% damage resistance to fire as you run head-first into danger like the unstoppable legend your mum said you’d be.

Title

Fire Safety Officer
You can now call yourself a Fire Safety Officer. Doesn’t come with a certificate.

Skin

Safety Orange
Repaint your Shuttle, Hellpod, and Exosuit in striking Safety Orange.

Capes & Cards

Purifying Eclipse
A heartfelt tribute to the Liberation of Choepessa IV in the First Galactic War, in which so much orbital ordnance was detonated that its sun was occluded by ash for an entire lunar cycle.

The Breach
The final mission of the 361^st Freedom’s Flame saw this storied unit deploy into the heart of a Supervolcano in a mission of heroic sacrifice. Triggering a huge eruption, this act of incredible bravery wiped out a massive Terminid swarm. As documented in the bestselling graphic novel ‘The Breach,’ it is available at all good book shops on Super Earth.

Emotes

Big Stretch, Deep Reflection, and Thoracic Collision Exultation Manoeuvre Co-emote. If you’re going to win. Win in style.

In addition to the upcoming Freedom’s Flame Warbond, players can also prepare to jump into the Escalation of Freedom update on August 6th. This major update will bring new planets, enemies, missions, and more to the game and looks to shake up Helldivers 2 with the inclusion of classic enemies such as the Impaler. But for now, the Galactic War is ongoing, and the current Major Order calls for players to continue to liberate Automaton planets as the robot army has been weakened over the past few weeks.
