New Predator?Helldivers 2 players are being ordered to venture into the Gloom and I'm sure the new bugs Arrowhead's teasing in horror flick fashion won't be a problemForget that planet-eating black hole for now, apparently, you've got some spore fog to get slapped up in.Image credit: Arrowhead News by Mark Warren Senior Staff Writer Published on Feb. 18, 2025 Helldivers 2 players just handled splattering a lod of bugs with almost terrifying efficiency. So, naturally Arrowhead's decided to take things up a notch with its latest major order - you're gonna fight some more bugs in some spooky spore fog, and it's looking like some of these Terminids will be a fresh strain of nasty space vermin.I know what you're thinking. Isn't there a whole planet-eating Meridia black hole on a path to Super Earth right now that we should probably be dealing with? Nah, don't worry about it. I'm sure that having gobbled up Angel's Venture, it's gonna need a little more time to digest, so there's time for you go on a fuel-based detour.To see this content please enable targeting cookies. This latest bug order has been made possible than to a lab on Turing producing the "first line of prototypes for Gloom-resistant equipment". That's a good thing, Arrowhead says, because: "the astrophysicists on Fori Prime, in their quest for knowledge about Dark Energy and the Meridian Singularity, have been depleting their allocated E-710 at an alarming rate. However, there is a Terminid ecosystem full of untapped potential within reach: the Gloom."At least the "Gloom conditions" you'll be dealing with as you battle to take control of Fori Prime, collect 100 million common samples from it and casually wipe out a billion Terminids are "remarkably favorable at the moment".

The latter the poster has censored themselves, so we here at VG247 thank them for keeping their trouser-filling terror PG.Are you looking forward to heading into the Gloom, or are you keenm to get back to black hole battling ASAP?
