Ahead of Helldivers 2’s upcoming Xbox release, developer Arrowhead Game Studios has revealed that the game will be getting an official Halo crossover. Releasing on August 26th, the Helldivers 2 x Halo: ODST Legendary Warbond will offer players an assortment of weapons and cosmetics primarily based on 2009’s Halo 3: ODST.
“Enter The Obedient Democracy Support Troopers (ODST), AKA The Helljumpers!” a description for the crossover reads. “This new equipment set from the Ministry of Defense will give your Helldivers the look of the fabled unit every Super Earth citizen had on their school lunch box as kids. Jam-packed with iconic weaponry, armor, patterns and more.”
Players will be able to unlock the Halo content as part of the newly introduced legendary warbond, priced at 1500 Super Credits. It’s worth pointing out that while Super Credits can be purchased with real money, they’re also obtainable in-game as mission rewards.
A list of all the legendary warbond’s included content can be found below:
Weapons:
- MA5C Assault Rifle – An iconic rifle; the definition of reliable and having taken down countless aliens bent on wiping out humanity, it is time to turn its sights on enemies of MANAGED DEMOCRACY. It comes equipped with the convenient ammo counter and a built-in compass – let it guide you to victory.
- M6C/SOCOM Pistol – They say keep your friends close and your sidearm closer. Well, we say that. The standard-issue ODST sidearm is your silent ally in the field -equipped with a built-in laser sight, flashlight, and, for the first time in Helldivers 2, a suppressor to support stealth gameplay. Because sometimes the best way to enforce PEACE is quietly…
- M90A Shotgun – This powerful shotgun carries a kick and has a handy flashlight mounted on it so you can see the fear in your enemies’ eyes before you teach them a valuable lesson about LIBERTY.
- M7S SMG – Silent and deadly, this SMG is the model ODST’s primary weapon. With caseless ammo and a non-removable suppressor; this weapon is ready to spread FREEDOM to every corner of the galaxy.
Armor:
- A-9 Helljumper Armor Set – Step into the armored boots of a legendary Lance Corporal who served the ODST with immense bravery and courage under fire. Passive boost – Feet First.
- A-35 Recon Armor Set – Sleeker and stealthier than the A-9 Armor, this set is made to move and groove, with a helmet modeled after an iconic intelligence officer’s headgear. Passive boost – Feet First.
Feet First Passive:
- Make less noise from movement
- Range when finding points of interest increased by 30%
- Immune to leg injuries
Capes:
- Honored Heirloom – This cape, emblazoned with the ODST logo, is passed down to a Jumper’s bravest child in the event of their untimely demise.
- Eye of the Clandestine – Some soldiers fight on the front line, and some from the shadows. Wrap yourself in secrecy with this sleek, subtle cape, and slip away from the light.
The Helldivers 2 x Halo: ODST Legendary Warbond will also include ODST-themed player cards, a new player title, and the Mean Green vehicle pattern for your hellpod, shuttle, exosuit, and FRV.
