There's a new Terminid threat on the horizon, and Super Earth doesn't want us to know about it. Reports from Helldivers 2 players suggest a new type of enemy has joined the frey: a bug breed possibly called the 'Shrieker.' They travel in packs, attack from the skies, and look annoying as heck. In the Reddit clip, Projectpatdc is in the middle of a standard refinery mission at level 5 difficulty when the Shrieker strafing begins.
A single strike deals over half of their HP, and the pest immediately escapes back to the sky. In the distance, we can see an unfamiliar structure—glowing, tree-shaped objects that, I'd wager, are nests that must be destroyed to stop the Shriekers from spawning. That introduced an additional mission type to Helldivers 2. The perfect opportunity to sneak in another surprise, and yet Arrowhead CEO Johan Pilestedt is playing coy today.
