Helldivers 2 (2024)

A badly placed airstrike can create the squad's next emergency before the enemy has done anything clever. Friendly fire, shared reinforcements and pressure to reach extraction produce rescues and recoveries worth recounting, provided accidents stay accidental. The reinforcement supply is limited, and carried samples still need somebody to get them out. Start below the group's limit and choose a mission that fits the evening; a desperate final stand is more enjoyable when losing the expedition was an agreed possibility.
