Sharp-eyed Helldivers 2 players may have uncovered a potential PlayStation leak hinting at intense battles against the Illuminate on Super Earth's urban battlegrounds.
Following Arrowhead's full-scale Illuminate invasion update this week—complete with new enemy variants—in-game lore strongly implies an imminent attack on humanity's homeworld. Now, an apparent slip from PlayStation's Czech Republic Threads account suggests the conflict will indeed reach Super Earth's doorstep.
Reddit user xTekshi captured since-deleted posts referencing a "Heart of Democracy" update slated for May 20. While the name aligns with official patch notes, neither Sony nor Arrowhead have officially confirmed this release date.
The timing adds credibility—May 20 conveniently coincides with the expected conclusion of the current Major Order campaign.
Official Playstation account for the Czech Republic dropped info on the next title update.

This development aligns perfectly with developers' ominous warnings ("High Command believes this Fleet's ultimate objective to be the invasion of Super Earth itself" and "Battle on Super Earth is inevitable").
Many believe the Czech account unintentionally revealed Helldivers 2's next major evolution—bringing warfare to Super Earth's soil. Such an expansion would dramatically enhance the explosive shooter's scope, currently limited to alien planetary combat. Urban warfare on humanity's home turf would deliver fresh tactical challenges.
