The latest trailer for Helldivers 2 had already announced Mechs. A Reddit user claims to have already found the combat robots in the game and shows an extraordinary video.
What are mechs? Mechs are bipedal combat robots that are often heavily armed and well armored. In Helldivers 2 they were already announced in the last trailer and a release was announced shortly after the game was released. A user claims to have already sat in a mech by chance and is causing a stir with his video of it.
You can see the trailer in which the mechs were announced here.
Suddenly a player sees mechs in a normal lobby
How does the player get the mechs? Reddit user fozzye18 wanted to join a lobby as normal one evening and met a fellow player who supposedly had access to the game files. The other player was therefore able to spawn two different mechs, which, according to the video, already looked very finished.
According to the post creator, the mechs should have different weapons, one mech should have a machine gun and missiles to choose from. The other is an autocannon, which you can also see in the video. In the video he also shows what the mech looks like and how to control and shoot it.
The whole video seems quite credible, but you can watch it for yourself here:
What do we know about the ‘Mechs? Reddit user Gilmore75 wrote: “The machine gun/missile mech is the Exo 44. The autocannon mech you see in the video is the Exo 48.” The two mechs can be found on the game’s wiki. There is also another mech there, the EXO-51, which was not shown in the video.
Could you see more? According to the creator of the post, he was able to see even more new things from Helldivers 2. He says: “I saw that he [der Mitspieler] “Had access to their new weapons, such as an energy rocket launcher, a meteorite that hits like the atomic bomb, a group of Helldivers you can summon for support (NPCs), and more.”
So it seems like the next content update isn’t as far away as some people thought. Recently, however, the roadmap for Helldivers 2 was discarded, and the game’s boss has commented on it.
