They’re back. One year after the heroic forces of Super Earth liberated Malevelon Creek—famously nicknamed “Robot Vietnam” by the community—those dastardly Automatons have returned to desecrate hallowed ground. And they’ve done it with brazen timing: mere days before Malevelon Creek Memorial Day.
A Return to the Infamous Battlefield
If you played Helldivers 2 at launch, you probably still have nightmares of slogging through Malevelon Creek, battling wave after wave of robotic terrors. The victorious Helldivers eventually wrested control of the planet, but now, following the recent failure of a Major Order, the Automaton Incineration Corps has seized parts of the Severin Sector. The writing was on the wall—a second invasion was unavoidable. Sure enough, the official Helldivers 2 Twitter just confirmed it: the incursion is underway.
Rallying Cry of Super Earth
In a fiery statement, the Helldivers Command called for “immediate action,” demanding all available soldiers defend and hold Malevelon Creek:
“This hallowed ground is the resting place of many, many brave Helldivers whose ultimate sacrifices freed the planet early in the War. Now, the enemy seeks to defile their graves—obviously having calculated that seizing the planet on the upcoming Malevelon Creek Memorial Day would result in the greatest net desecration. Super Earth will never tolerate such an outrageous affront to decency.”
Between the Incineration Corps’ relentless new assault and the emotional weight of defending a site where so many Helldivers laid down their lives, this operation practically demands legendary heroics. Grab your gear—there’s no time to hesitate. Robot Vietnam waits, and once again, it’s up to you and your squad to show these mechanical fiends what happens when they trample on Super Earth’s sacred soil. Get ready for the fight of your life—because the creek has never been more hostile.
