Arrowhead and Sony have announced Python Commandos, a brand new Helldivers 2 Warbond, and it's bringing an honest-to-god minigun and more next week.
As revealed in a new PlayStation Blog post, Python Commandos launches on December 2nd (that's next Tuesday at time of writing), and as has been the case with previous Helldivers 2 Warbonds, you can expect new weapons, new armor, and new emotes to bring with you into the field.
First off, the M-1000 Maxigun is a belt-fed, ultra-high-capacity minigun that should let you tear through bugs, bots, and whatever else gets in your way with aplomb. Just try not to turn it on your teammates.
A new Guard Dog drone equipped with a flamethrower is also being added, but once again, you'll need to make sure it doesn't accidentally set your teammates on fire (or perhaps they'll need to make sure they're not in its way).
Hacking your way through Helldivers 2's jungles just got a lot easier, too, as the aptly-named CQC-9 Defoliation Tool (which, yes, is basically a machete) can cut through everything, be it brush, bugs, or, uh, buddies.
