Helldivers 2 devs didn't know if players would actually manage to defend Super Earth last time, so as they drop Cyberstan on their heads, "we don't know what will happen"

One of the most unique things about Helldivers 2 is the way the collective player base determines the way the story unfolds based on whether or not they’re successful in liberating territory from various threats. The latest enemies in the ongoing Galactic War, the cyborgs, are at the center of Helldivers 2’s “most ambitious” update yet, and the folks at Arrowhead genuinely don’t know how it’s going to play out.

Machinery of Oppression is the next big Helldivers 2 update, and it’ll usher in the Battle for Cyberstan, which is currently being occupied by bloodthirsty, democracy-hating cyborgs. You know what to do. The only question is: do we Super Earth defenders have what it takes? Just like with the battle for Super Earth itself, no one knows the answer to that question – not even Arrowhead itself.
