Helldivers 2 has been one of 2024's biggest winners so far, with millions of players lining up to join the fight against bug and robot terrors in the quest to spread liberty in the name of Super Earth. With its initial server wobbles now seemingly under control for the most part, developer Arrowhead Game Studios releases the first major update. Helldivers 2 patch 1.000.100 is out now on PC, with the PlayStation 5 update set to follow soon, and it introduces new planetary hazards along with some balance changes to some of the weapons considered to be "quite strong with too little downside."
