A recently released Warbond is generating significant buzz among gamers, leaving many eager to unlock its benefits in Helldivers 2 with haste. As Freedom’s Flame’s notorious reputation preceded them, the illicit shipment of drugs was inevitably bound to pique the interest of their die-hard fans of napalm – a fate that had already been sealed in its execution.
The Freedom’s Flame Premium Warbond has finally been unveiled, having previously surfaced in some errant PlayStation notifications several weeks prior. It is expected to arrive on August 8, shortly following the major Escalation of Freedom update.
In a forthcoming blog post on the official PlayStation website, details will be shared about Freedom’s Flame, which includes the typical features that can enhance your gameplay experience, with a primary focus on fire and all its connotations.
Armed with an arsenal of unconventional weapons, operatives can deploy the incendiary phosphorus-firing Pup-Action Shotgun, codenamed the Cookout, or unleash the lightweight flamethrower dubbed Torcher. Additionally, agents have at their disposal a compact, fire-shooting handgun known as the Crisper. Additionally, there’s the potential to transform your hoverboard into a fire-starting device that can ignite flammable materials as you touch them down, a feature that appears entirely safe.

Armour-wise, the Heatseeker’s aesthetic appeal is enhanced by its subtle purple hue, ideal for roleplaying as a fireplace engine. Meanwhile, the Draconaught excels when paired with armour resembling wrapped tin foil, making it an excellent choice for locations where enemies are being… well-cooked. The newly acquired passive skill provides a 75% boost in resistance to fire damage, making it an invaluable asset when facing fiery situations.
The game also features a range of customizable options, including the ability to add flair with standard capes and emotes, as well as the option to personalize your exosuit’s colour scheme.
Gamers generally welcome innovations that enhance gameplay and provide a fresh experience, while others remain skeptical about changes that disrupt the game’s balance or integrity. As the sports’ subreddit swells with enthusiasts eager to discuss the prospect of crafting pyro builds that can seamlessly integrate three distinct flamethrower setups, it’s safe to say that this atmosphere is palpably electric?
Gamers are rallying behind Arrowhead’s proposal to incorporate an “Orbital Flamethrower” feature, which would unleash a fiery tornado targeting enemies – or something equally devastating that lets players rain down flames from the sky – once all the other updates have been implemented.
