Helldivers 2 is without doubt one of the greatest (and finest) video games of 2024 to this point so it shouldn’t shock you that PlayStation is seeking to capitalize on the sci-fi co-op shooter’s success with some new spiffy merchandise, together with a mug that I’d simply add to my assortment.
Launched in February, Helldivers 2 was so well-liked that it had too many gamers attempting to hop into its intense third-person sci-fi shooter motion, and the servers stored collapsing on PS5 and PC. Fortunately, these servers had been mounted, and since then I’ve put a ton of time into the sport, principally as a result of it makes fight really feel each satisfying and harmful. I additionally love the satirical Starship Troopers-like vibes of its world, the place democracy is used as an excuse to do something, even drop massive bombs. (Fortunately that by no means occurs in the actual world…) I particularly like it when my soldier yells out “How a couple of good cup of liber-tea!” And now, I can get a brand new mug with that quote slapped on the facet.
Introduced on March 14 by way of the Official PlayStation Weblog, Helldivers 2 merch is now obtainable throughout just a few completely different storefronts. Your standard choices are right here, together with some nice-looking shirts that includes the sport’s brand in just a few completely different layouts. Nothing too thrilling or enjoyable, however good to have.
The higher merch is the sillier stuff, together with shirts that embody traces from the sport like “Candy liberty, my leg!” and “Say good day to democracy!” My private favourite is the mug that options the beforehand talked about “liber-tea” quote. Now I can drink some scrumptious Earl Gray tea whereas I kill bugs and bots in Helldivers 2. The mug prices $20.
There’s additionally a shirt with an orbital precision stratagem icon and code on it, which is…effective, I assume. Actually, this primary spherical of merch feels a tad rushed, virtually like Sony didn’t anticipate this recreation to set the world on hearth prefer it did. Within the weblog publish, the corporate guarantees a “wider product assortment launching over the following few months.” I hope future merchandise are a bit weirder and funnier. I desire a “Malevelon Creek Veteran” hat or a shirt with the Strategem Hero brand on it. Really, simply give me a shirt with a picture of a Charger and the phrase “Nope” printed beneath it. I’d purchase that.
Helldivers 2 merch is now obtainable on Amazon, Insert Coin, and the official PlayStation Gear retailer.
