A well-known dataminer has revealed new images of a faction that is actually still a secret, making the blood run cold
AlthoughHelldivers 2was primarily influenced by the classic movie Starship Troopers, many players are reminded of War of the Worlds. Because if the latest leaks are true,three-legged monsters will soon be waiting for you in Helldivers 2
The leak comes from the well-known leaker and dataminer IronS1ghts, who has been regularly extracting new images from the game files and releasing them to the public for several weeks now. Now, for the first time, he has shown screenshots of what an iconic unit of the new enemy faction looks like in the game
The two screenshots are causing panic in the comments, as the so-called Tripods appear to be larger than many originally thought. You can see the screenshots here:

What am I looking at?
The arrival of the third enemy faction has been hinted at for some time now in Helldivers 2 It now seems almost confirmed that this is the Illuminate. An aquatic alien race that already threatened the super-Earth in Helldivers 1
However, they were also thought to be extinct since then, but apparently their return is now imminent. To make matters worse, the Illuminati seem to have made good use of their time, as the Tripod appears significantly larger than it did in its predecessor.Back then, these Illuminati foot soldiers were no taller than a human, now they tower over a windmill.
Righteouslya userremarks in the comments below IronS1ghts’ post, somewhat shocked:
But they’re much bigger than in the first galactic war …
In addition to many comparisons to the no less terrifying three-legged alien walkers from War of the Worlds, many players write that the two images alone send a cold shiver down their spine:
Consistent-North7790writes about:
Oh, crap. Mom, please pick me up. I’m scared.
Membership-Bitteris as fearful as she is expectant:
Damn, that shot in the fog is terrifying. Can’t wait for the squids to finally come into play. Will be intense
What else do we know?
As already mentioned, the same user has been leaking images from Helldivers 2 for a long time and has already shown many screenshots of the new enemies . But now, for the first time, an image from the game itself has been revealed
According to IronS1ghts, the monster is supposed to move extremely fluidly through the game world and make a great impression.The Illuminate Tripods cause damage with laser beams, which move either horizontally, vertically or erratically across the battlefield. To deactivate the laser, players can smash the eye of the monster
What do you think of this new enemy? Will you now crawl into your cellar, trembling, or can no alien, no matter how scary, stop you in your heroic quest for democracy? Write it in the comments:
