Swordplay and Ceremony: New Premium Gear Coming to Helldivers 2

To celebrate their victory over the Illuminati, the Super-Earth leadership will unearth uniforms, sabers, and other gear befitting the finest royal troops. The premium combat reward **»Master of Ceremonies»** will become available in **[Helldivers 2](https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/553850/view/516335345719050256)** on May 15.

Hell Divers are encouraged to equip themselves with the R-2 bayonet rifle and the CQC-2 saber, designed to «inspire you to lead the charge and plunge your blade into the hearts of enemies.» The set will also include the G-142 grenade, which erupts in a shower of sparks before exploding upon impact. To boost the morale of fellow soldiers, a flag that can also serve as a spear will be included.

For those who prefer a more formal attire, the lightweight RE-1861 «Parade Commander» armor is a great fit. If you’re looking for something that strikes fear into your foes, consider the RE-2310 «Honor Guard» armor. As users humorously pointed out in the trailer comments, **Arrowhead** incorporated its name into the shooter in line with the lore—the «Honor Guard» helmet features an arrow indicator. A unique perk associated with both outfits provides limbs a chance not to break, allowing you to continue waving your victory flag.

Additionally, the **»Master of Ceremonies»** set will offer two capes, an emote, a sample scanner for gathering even more samples in one go, and more.

Following the announcement of the premium reward, some users recalled the statement made by **Arrowhead** CEO **Shams Jorjani**, who suggested that gamers would be «thrilled beyond measure» at the future of **Helldivers 2**. Consequently, the studio representatives were quick to **remind** everyone «still on the fence about whether they should be excited» that Jorjani was not just referring to the battle pass but also to a significant update, which will roll out around the same time as the reward.
