The wait is finally over — Helldivers 2 players are officially getting one of the biggest crossovers in gaming history. On August 26, 2025, Arrowhead Game Studios is dropping the ODST Legendary Warbond, a full-scale Halo crossover that brings the iconic Orbital Drop Shock Troopers into the chaotic world of managed democracy. If you’ve ever dreamed of stepping into Helldivers 2 with the gear and firepower of a true Halo soldier, this update makes it happen. So, what exactly is included in the ODST Legendary Warbond? This isn’t just a simple cosmetic pack — it’s a massive crossover update loaded with Halo-inspired weapons, armor, and gear that completely changes how you can approach missions. The most exciting additions are, of course, the weapons. Players will finally get access to Halo’s most legendary firearms: The classic AR (MA5-style) — perfect for spraying down hordes of enemies with that unmistakable burst of firepower Halo fans know and love. The Silenced Pistol — a callback to stealth missions and precise headshots, this sidearm is a must-have for players who prefer a quieter approach to democracy spreading. The Pump-Action Shotgun — devastating up close, this powerhouse weapon feels ripped straight from Halo’s arsenal and will shred through Terminids and Automatons alike. Beyond weapons, the Warbond also brings full ODST armor sets complete with visors, tactical plating, and that unmistakable drop trooper look. Players can customize their loadouts with stealth-focused perks, adding a whole new tactical edge to the game. The update also includes ODST-themed capes, cosmetic skins, and even a new vehicle skin, letting you fully kit out your Helldiver to look and feel like a true ODST dropping feet first into hell. For longtime Halo fans, this crossover is a dream come true. The ODSTs have always been fan-favorite characters in the Halo universe, known for their gritty, boots-on-the-ground style of combat, and now that experience is coming directly to Helldivers 2. The best part? It’s not just a simple homage — the devs have worked to make sure these weapons and armor sets feel authentic to both Halo and Helldivers, blending the universes in a way that feels seamless and exciting. This update is perfectly timed too, arriving just as Helldivers 2 continues its hot streak as one of the most talked-about co-op shooters of the year. By bringing in Halo’s most iconic elements — the weapons, the armor, the vibe — Arrowhead is showing they know exactly how to keep the community hyped and engaged. Mark your calendars: August 26, 2025 is when the ODST Legendary Warbond drops.
