The Cyborgs return to Helldivers 2 as devs get 'hacked' during deep dives

Helldivers 2 is taking players back to Cyberstan, and Arrowhead has been drumming up hype on social media by pretending to get hacked by the Automaton fleet. Confirmation dropped this morning that the Cyborgs are indeed making a return. A recent video on the game's YouTube channel titled "Hello World" in binary features the once-thought-destroyed Cyborg legion speaking: 01001000 01000101 01001100 01001100 01001111 00100000 01010111 01001111 01010010 01001100 01000100 - "Freedom.

You enslaved us in the name of freedom. You tried to eradicate us in the name of freedom. We endured. We survived. We are the Cyborg legion. And now we are free. Leave us and there will be peace. Else be annihilated." The game's current Automaton faction can be thought of as the Cyborgs' vengeful children, emerging out of the dust of an enslaved Cyberstan to avenge their creators.

The Cyborgs themselves are described as political dissidents who tried to break off from Super Earth and were, y'know, not allowed to do that.
