Helldivers 2 Patch 6.0 Rolls Out Bastion Tank, Siege Breakers Warbond, and Harder Top-Tier Fights

Arrowhead links the release to a Cyberstan offensive prompted by stolen 'Star of Peace' schematics.

Overview

  • The update is live on February 3 with version 6.0.x, introducing the Bastion Tank and the premium Siege Breakers Warbond.
  • Difficulty has been raised chiefly on levels nine and ten, with Automatons seeing the most significant increases in pressure.
  • All melee attacks receive a 50% base damage boost, while SMG and pistol sway is reduced to tighten close-quarters handling.
  • Enemy behavior is reworked with better Automaton aim at high enemy counts and adjusted attack values to threaten high‑health vehicles, including the Bastion, FRV, and Exosuits.
  • Stability and QoL additions include a hang detector that generates crash dumps after prolonged freezes, new Chinese voiceover, and broader cosmetic and stratagem updates.
