Sony may have leaked an upcoming content for Helldivers 2 by briefly selling it as a sticker in the store.
What kind of leak is this? Sony had published a new offer in the PlayStation Store: a sticker set with 13 stickers representing boosters from Helldivers 2. However, there are currently only 12 boosters in Helldivers 2, and the four-leaf clover in the third row of the store image is not (yet) included in the game.
In the meantime, Sony has deleted the offer and the former store page is no longer accessible, but some Helldivers fans were quick and posted a screenshot on Reddit:
Here you can see the post with the stickers:
The co-op shooter community now believes that this was an accidental leak by Sony. The sticker, which is not in the game, could therefore come with a future update. The fact that the store offer was deleted again reinforces this theory.
But take this information with a certain amount of skepticism. After all, this is not an official announcement. It is not certain that such a booster will actually come into the game.
Helldivers often brings boosters into play with a new War Bond. Here you can see a trailer for the latest War Bond, Flame of Freedom:
What are boosters? Boosters are bonuses that can be used for the duration of a mission to improve the skills and resources of your Helldivers.
Boosters are not consumable items and can be reselected before each mission. However, each booster can only be used once per team and each Helldiver can only choose a single booster. However, a selected booster always applies to every player in the squad.
What does the community say about this? The community is quite sure that this is a probable leak and is busy speculating about what the probably leaked booster will be able to do.
But some players also allow themselves to have fun at Sony’s expense:
Do we already know more about the next content update? No, there is currently no fixed date for the next content update. We also don’t know any topic or possible content. However, the developers regularly bring new content to the co-op shooter with the war bonds
All we have to do is wait and see if the new booster comes and what it will be able to do. If you are not sure which booster best suits your play style, you can check out which boosters are available and how strong they are. Helldivers 2: Booster Tier List – Which are the best improvements?
