Helldivers 2 update adds poisonous Noxious Terminids
Helldivers 2’s next update adds Noxious Terminids, a new subspecies of the insect-like enemies in the game.
The first types include fast, poison-filled Scavengers that are fragile but can overwhelm players.
Larger Noxious Spewers can fire webs that pin Helldivers in place, and shooting their soft undersides makes them explode and spread web fluid.
Their poison can blur vision, slow movement and steadily reduce health.
Bug caves will appear on more worlds, sending players into tunnels with poor visibility and tight dead ends.
Players will be tasked with finding and eliminating the new creatures as part of Super Earth’s campaign to sterilise the galaxy.
Helldivers 2’s next update will add a new Terminid subspecies called Noxious Terminids.
The new enemies include fast, fragile Noxious Scavengers and larger Noxious Spewers that can trap players with web projectiles.
Their poison can blur vision, slow movement and cause damage over time.
The update will also make bug caves appear on more worlds, with tunnels that have limited visibility and claustrophobic dead ends.
