Helldivers 2 Difficulty Levels Explained

Helldivers 2 features several difficulty levels. Let’s go through each of them and see how they differ from the others.

Arrowhead Game Studios’ co-op multiplayer title Helldivers 2 features 10 different difficulty levels, ranging from Trivial and Easy to intense Helldive and Super Helldive. Unlike most other games, higher difficulties introduce entirely new enemy types, rather than simply increasing the number of existing ones. Additionally, more objectives are added as the difficulty rises.

Playing Helldivers 2 on Helldive difficulty feels like a completely different experience when compared to Trivial, Easy, and Medium. However, you will receive greater rewards, such as more medals and super samples, as you push through higher difficulty ranks. Let’s explore the various difficulty levels in Helldivers 2 and how they vary from each other.

How to Change Difficulty Level in Helldivers 2?

In Helldivers 2, you can change the difficulty level at the Galactic War Screen(provided you already have that difficulty level unlocked). Selecting a specific difficulty level on a planet on the galaxy map will display the available operations and missions for that difficulty.

Every player starts with Trivial difficulty, the easiest level. Once you complete an entire operation on Trivial, you will unlock the next difficulty, Easy. As you progress and complete missions at each difficulty level, the subsequent difficulty levels become available.
