#The Helldivers 2 day-60 patch turns into the day-63 patch, and Arrowhead teases what’s to come back – Destructoid

Table of Contents
In August, Helldivers 2 developer Arrowhead Video games introduced a 60-day plan to enhance the sport and win again the hearts and minds of its group. Sadly, the deliberate 60-day patch is getting pushed till subsequent week, but it surely’s for cause.
Inventive director Johan Pilestedt and design director Niklas Malmborg introduced that the 60-day patch will now be the 63-day patch, releasing on Tuesday, October 15. Why the delay? Nicely, apparently, somebody at Arrowhead forgot to verify what day the deadline would fall on.
It’s a Saturday, and, as Pilestedt and Malmborg defined in a brief video clip, Arrowhead doesn’t launch patches on the weekend. The rationale? They “don’t wish to break the sport whilst you’re enjoying the sport.” The patch has been delayed to keep away from a situation the place would-be weekend divers are caught doing one thing else, like enjoying one other sport or visiting household (shudders).
However the excellent news is that the duo have teased what the patch is bringing subsequent week.
Arrowhead teases what’s contained in the 60-day 63-day patch
To whet your urge for food, Pilestedt and Malmborg took a couple of moments within the clip to tease what the 63-day patch will include. Sure, identical to the large patch we obtained final month, the subsequent one buffs much more weapons.
- Flak is coming to the Autocannon
- The Recoilless Rifle is getting programmable ammo
- The Scorcher will obtain “automated hearth”
- A change is coming to the Stalwart
- You’ll have the ability to retrieve and activate your backpack drones manually
It’s a pleasant record, despite the fact that not less than one tease looks like a tease. I imply, what change is coming to the Stalwart? Don’t maintain out on me, Arrowhead. I like the Stalwart.

Among the many modifications, having the ability to recall and ship out your backpack drone is one thing I by no means knew I wished till now. It’ll actually assist after I’m enjoying Helldive missions and I would like my drone to not shoot the close by bug patrol, thanks very a lot.
The complete patch notes will arrive on October 15. Till then, blissful weekend diving.
