Helldivers 2 Freedom’s Flame Warbond release time

Freedom’s Flame is the next Premium Warbond for Helldivers 2, following the Polar Patriots Warbond that released in May.

Below, we detail when the Freedom’s Flame Warbond releases in Helldivers 2 in your time zone, plus some details about what to expect.


Freedom’s Flame Warbond release time: When does the new Helldivers 2 update launch?

The Freedom’s Flame Premium Warbond is set to go live on Thursday, August 8. While neither publisher PlayStation Studios nor developer Arrowhead Game Studios have announced the exact release time, we can make an educated guess about its release time based on previous launches; Cutting Edge went live around 6:30 a.m. EST, while Democractic Detonation and Polar Patriots both went live around 5:00 a.m. EDT.

With that in mind, here’s a roughly three-hour window for when the Freedom’s Flame Warbond goes live in your time zone:

  • Between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m. PDT for the west coast of North America
  • Between 5 a.m. and 8 a.m. EDT for the east coast of North America
  • Between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. GMT for the U.K.
  • Between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. CET for western Europe / Paris
  • Between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. JST for Tokyo

How much does the Freedom’s Flame Warbond cost in Helldivers 2?

Though a price has not been announced for Freedom’s Flame, previous Premium Warbonds in Helldivers 2 have cost 1,000 Super Credits (or $9.99), so it’s safe to expect the same in this case.

Unlike battle passes in many other live service games, once purchased, Premium Warbonds never go away in Helldivers 2. Note that you do not get all of the associated rewards automatically — you still have you play your way through the pass.
