Leaked Footage Depicts APC Testing
Leaked footage, shared by Twitter user Rebs Gaming, showcases Helldivers 2 players experimenting with an APC during missions. This follows earlier leaks of mech gameplay, responding to the community's desire for mechs and enhanced mobility. Despite the less-than-optimal video quality, the footage exhibits a four-seater vehicle equipped with a turret, engaging enemies within the game.
The origin of the leaked footage remains unclear, leading to speculation about potential data mining or breaches of non-disclosure agreements by playtesters. Critical details, such as the ammunition capacity of the turret or potential variations of the APC, are yet to be confirmed. Nevertheless, the leaks suggest that APCs could become a noteworthy addition to Helldivers 2.
Additional Leaks Highlight Weaponry and Features
In addition to the APC revelations, recent leaks hinted at the introduction of diverse weaponry, including an energy rocket launcher. Players may also anticipate the capability to summon NPC Helldivers for reinforcement, adding strategic depth to the gaming experience.
Arrowhead Studios has not provided a specific timeline for the introduction of these features. However, the gaming community speculates that updates could be imminent, given the prior indication of the readiness of mechs and the emergence of leaked APC gameplay. While awaiting official confirmation, players remain engaged in the ongoing narrative involving Joel, purportedly orchestrating the bug and Automaton forces.
