And just like that, Arrowhead and Halo Studios have officially announced their highly anticipated collaboration with the Helldivers 2 x Halo ODST Warbond after its brief teaser on its highlight reel a few days ago. While this doesn’t actually bring Master Chief to the frontlines, it does introduce iconic Halo armors, weapons, and vehicle skins that bring back the glory days of the ODST era.
Here’s everything you need to know about Helldivers 2 x Halo ODST.
Helldivers 2 x Halo: ODST Weapons
MA5C Assault Rifle – The standard issue rifle of the UNSC Marine Corps and a longtime favorite among Halo fans. It may not be the most powerful weapon, but it is balanced enough to take on threats directly. In Helldivers 2, it is a solid choice against Terminid bugs, Automaton clankers, and the Illuminate.
M7S SMG – A submachine gun designed for the UNSC’s ground infantry. This fast and deadly firearm uses caseless ammo and features a built-in suppressor, making it perfect for silent engagements. Ideal for ambushing unsuspecting Illuminate and Automatons.
M90a Shotgun – The ultimate partner for close-quarters combat. This iconic pump-action shotgun is a staple for both the UNSC and law enforcement authorities. Its high armor-piercing power makes it perfect for shredding Automaton machinery or cracking through the thickest Terminid skulls.
M6C/SOCOM Pistol – The first pistol in Helldivers 2 history to feature a suppressor. A beloved Halo sidearm, it is known for its reliability in both quick firefights and stealth operations.
Helldivers 2 x Halo: ODST Armors
A-9 Helljumper – The ultimate ODST look. Wearing this tells every Helldiver you’ve still got memories of New Mombasa.
A-35 Recon – A reimagined Recon armor adapted for every Helldiver. It carries the iconic visor and pads that Halo fans will instantly recognize.
New Passive
A new armor passive is also arriving with the Warbond, called “Feet First Armor Passive.” This ability reduces the noise your Helldiver makes while moving, making it perfect for stealth gameplay. It also grants immunity to leg injuries and increases the range for discovering points of interest by 30 percent.
Extra Cosmetics and More
The Helldivers 2 x Halo ODST Warbond doesn’t just include weapons and armor. It also features two new capes, the Honored Heirloom and Eye of the Clandestine. Players can also equip ODST-themed player cards with titles such as “Rookie” along with new vehicle patterns inspired by Halo’s legacy.
Can PlayStation 5 Users Unlock the Halo Cosmetics?
Yes, PlayStation 5 players can unlock the Halo ODST cosmetics from this Warbond with no restrictions. The event is cross-platform, meaning anyone who has Helldivers 2 can access it during its release. This is also Sony and Microsoft's first collaborative effort to bring the iconic Halo series to PlayStation, with possibly the entire Halo collection coming soon.
Warbond Cost and Price
The Helldivers 2 x Halo ODST Warbond is priced at 1,500 Super Credits. Players can purchase Super Credits directly from the in-game store, or they can earn them gradually by completing missions.
Helldivers 2 x Halo ODST Release
You won’t have to wait long for the crossover, as it launches on August 26 for PlayStation 5, Steam, and Xbox Series X/S.
