- Quick Answer: Helldivers 2 fans believe the Cyborgs may return after a new Warbond trailer teased a familiar enemy, though Arrowhead has not officially confirmed their arrival.
A new threat is brewing in Arrowhead’s Helldivers 2, and fans are not prepared to see their return.
Earlier this week, Arrowhead unexpectedly dropped a trailer for an upcoming Warbond, Siege Breakers, slated for a February 3, 2026, release. While some players are ecstatic about a new Warbond dropping weeks after its previous one, Redacted Regiment, eagle-eyed fans also notice something ominous at the 1:43-second mark of the trailer.
The transmission was confidential, meaning it should not be seen with regular eyes and saved for Super Earth’s best and brightest. Yet for some reason, we saw it with our own eyes: an injured Helldiver being dragged by a mysterious enemy. The transmission then cuts off, leaving the fate of the poor hero unknown.
Longtime fans of the series, notably from the first game, believed that this could be the Cyborgs, an ancient faction with a long and grueling feud with Super Earth. Their deep hatred of the human hegemony, and by extension, Helldivers, is among the earliest enemies from the first game.
The Cyborgs are the first iterations of the Automatons we now know today. Yet unlike their rage-fueled progenitors, they are a fully sentient race obsessed with tinkering with their bodies with metallic modifications. As a result, their plans of expansion grow, achieving a whole new meaning of life by embracing the machines. Cyberstan was the major settlement of these Cyborgs, and the brief snippet we’ve seen at the end of the Siege Breakers Warbond trailer suggests that the footage was taken on that same planet.
According to Helldivers lore, Cyborgs would often kidnap Super Earth citizens and perform experiments on them, turning them into crazed “borgs,” and potentially Automatons.
Now, as Arrowhead seemingly drops a second warbond after Redacted Regiment, fans are already putting two and two together: this might be in preparation for the imminent Cyborg invasion. The Siege Breakers Warbond is perfect to quell the incoming clanker threat, as it includes an anti-tank power hammer and the return of the LAS-16 Trident, a once-favored primary weapon from the first game.
Users from the game’s official subreddit are already wondering if they get to see the Cyberdogs or Cyberhounds, a frustrating Cyborg variant that relentlessly chases Helldivers until they are mangled to death. Some even dreaded the thought of seeing a borged-out super city teeming with former Super Earth citizens now infused with metallic flesh.
It remains unclear whether the Cyborgs will arrive in the coming months, but recent signs, including Arrowhead releasing multiple Warbonds in a short span, suggest Helldivers may soon give players even more reasons to keep spreading democracy until every Cyborg is ripped and torn.
