The latest update for Helldivers 2, version 01.002.203, is now live on PlayStation 5 and PC. While the update’s download size alludes to it being a major title update, version 01.002.203 is essentially a hotfix, with some minor new additions. The new update marks the launch of the highly anticipated (and player-requested) Helldivers 2 x Killzone collaboration. The collaboration was rumored for months within the Helldivers communities. However, it came to fruition very recently, adding a ton of new and exciting Killzone-inspired in-game goodies for players to enjoy in Helldivers 2.

Helldivers 2 Patch Notes for Update 01.002.203 (December 18, 2024)
The latest Helldivers 2 update comes with fixes for the various crashing issues that were reported by players following the Omens of Tyranny update. Furthermore, the update also fixes the crash/soft lock issue that players on PC faced while trying to complete the Illuminate Towers during Ion Storms. The soft lock basically rendered the Illuminate Towers unplayable for many players on PC. However, with the latest update installed, players will finally be able to complete the mission, regardless of the Planetary Hazard. Additionally, update 01.002.203 also fixes the Siege Ready armor’s passive perks not working as intended.
