Eagle-eyed fans of Helldivers 2 have uncovered what appears to be a leak from PlayStation, hinting that players may soon find themselves battling the Illuminate on the streets of Super Earth. This week, developer Arrowhead rolled out the full Illuminate invasion, introducing new enemy types to the game. The in-game narrative suggested that the Illuminate were set on a direct course for Super Earth, and a now-deleted post from the official PlayStation Czech Republic Threads account has fueled speculation that the Illuminate will indeed reach our home planet, forcing players to defend it.

Redditor xTekshi was the first to spot the deleted post, which mentioned a "Heart of Democracy" update scheduled for May 20. Although the term "Heart of Democracy" has been used in the context of this week's update, neither Sony nor Arrowhead has officially confirmed its connection to a release on that date. The timing of the proposed May 20 update aligns perfectly with the conclusion of the current Major Order, adding credibility to the leak.

The language used by Sony and Arrowhead in recent updates ("High Command believes this Fleet's ultimate objective to be the invasion of Super Earth itself" and "Battle on Super Earth is inevitable") suggests that a confrontation on our home turf is on the horizon. Fans are buzzing with the idea that the Czech account inadvertently leaked details about Helldivers 2's next major update, which could involve defending Super Earth. If these leaks are accurate, it would mark a significant evolution for the game, currently featuring only alien planet maps. Engaging in battles on Super Earth would undoubtedly introduce a fresh and exciting dimension to the gameplay.
