Helldivers 2 Scope of Authority Premium Warbond Releases October 20

Helldivers 2 is expanding its arsenal with the Scope of Authority Premium Warbond, scheduled to launch on October 20. The upcoming bundle focuses on stealth and marksmanship, delivering specialized options for squads seeking dedicated long-range and clandestine firepower. Unlocking the contents will require the base game, earned progression, and Super Credits.

The content drop features several new weapons designed for precision engagements. Players can equip the R-40 Sightliner, an armor-piercing bolt-action primary rifle, alongside the P-44 Mist compact machine pistol for close encounters. Heavy fire support arrives in the form of the AMW-20 Apex, a massive backpack-fed anti-materiel rifle that supports assisted reloading, as well as the charge-based LAS-44 Nova energy rifle and G-11 Caltrops to hinder incoming foes with proximity stuns.

Protective gear in the package includes the SS-33 Mimetic Marshal light armor and the SS-15 Focal Point medium armor set. Both suits come equipped with the Stationary Shroud passive perk, which decreases detection distance and lowers weapon sway whenever operatives crouch or go prone. Additional cosmetics featured in the Warbond include matching capes, player cards, the Longshot title, and the Manual Ballistic Projection emote.
