“Helldivers 2 Revives Original Game’s Mech Suit in Latest Warbond”
Helldivers 2 revives a mech from the original game as part of a new warbond pack. The Exo Experts bundle adds two exosuit stratagems and fresh gear for frontline troops.
New exosuit stratagems
The pack introduces the EXO-51 Lumberer and EXO-55 Breakthrough. The Lumberer is a modern reinvention of a suit from the first game.
The Lumberer mounts a flamethrower and an anti-tank cannon. The Breakthrough pairs a flak cannon with a large shield for defensive play.
Armor sets and perks
Two pilot-style armor sets arrive with the warbond. The lighter O-3 Free Spirit evokes a flight-suit aesthetic.
The O-2 Heavy Operator leans toward an industrial hazmat look. Both suits include the Oxygenator perk, which boosts movement speed modestly.
Weapons included
- MGX-42 Bullet Storm — a machine gun with multiple detachable ammo barrels.
- SMG-203 Gallant — a straightforward submachine gun for close combat.
- P-33 Missile Pistol — a small launcher with a target-lock style system.
Release date and purchase details
Exo Experts launches on April 28th. The warbond will be available for super credits in-game.
Players can earn super credits through gameplay or purchase them with real money. This follows a quiet period after last month’s purple tower events in the galactic war.
Why it matters
Bringing a mech back from the earlier title should please long-term fans. The addition broadens tactical options for both assault and defense.
