Helldivers 2 players can look forward to a new Warbond arriving in the game next week on 11 April. The package, called the Democratic Detonation Premium Warbond, will be available for purchase with real money or with in-game credits. It includes various new weapons and gear pieces.
For starters, there’s a new CB-9 Exploding Crossbow that can shoot out an explosive bolt that explodes on direct impact. There’s also various new armour pieces including the FS-55 Devestator that packs some high explosive resistance.
Here’s a closer look at each item in the Democratic Detonation Premium Warbond.
Primary Weapons
BR-14 Adjudicator Rifle
Deliver righteous judgement to your enemies with accuracy. This armour-penetrating assault rifle is best used against smaller groups.

Keep your distance… this bolt-action rifle fires jet-assisted shells that explode shrapnel in all directions upon impact. All directions. Even your face.
CB-9 Exploding Crossbow
Kaboom! Enjoy powerful exploding bolts that dish out max damage upon direct impact. Gravity must be accounted for when aiming.
Secondary Weapons/Boosters
G-123 Thermite Grenade
This little beauty can stick to surfaces before burning up to a toasty 2000°C.
GP-31 Grenade Pistol
Does what it says on the label – a pistol that fires grenades. Don’t forget to reload between shots though.
