This article chronicles the major events and community moments of the first year of Helldivers 2, a sci-fi shooter where players fight against giant bugs and robotic enemies.
Helldivers 2 has had a violent year. The unexpected hit shooter released way back in February, but the galactic war at the center of its narrative doesn't feel like it's been raging for ten whole months. Time flies when you're having fun exterminating bugs. To commemorate Helldivers 2 's mostly incredible year, I've recorded an abridged history of the Second Galactic War so far.
I tried to keep to the biggest events, the best community actions, and chose not to exhaustively list every major order. I was able to log a surprising amount from memory, but this would not have been possible without the tireless work of the Helldivers Fandom wiki, which does actually list every single major order. For a complete accounting of the war so far, Millions of new recruits are rushed through basic training and sent to the frontlines. I'm introduced to the Terminids, a scourge of giant bugs spreading their toxic tendrils across the galaxy, and the Automatons, a dangerous faction of robots with endless resources and a distaste for democracy.An early example of the Helldivers community embracing the meta-narrative of the galactic war, a group of fellow divers band together to defend the planet of Malevelon Creek—distinctive for its permanent darkness and dubbed'Robot Vietnam'—from Automaton capture by whatever means necessary (playing the game a lot, basically). They call themselves Creekers.Keep up to date with the most important stories and the best deals, as picked by the PC Gamer team.Receive email from us on behalf of our trusted partners or sponsors A campaign begins to contain the spread of Terminids to the far reaches of the galaxy.
