According to the PlayStation Blog, the Helldivers are now tasked with repelling the Illuminate invasion by gaining ground over the invaders. This new objective is likened to an intergalactic tug-of-war, where players must constantly fight to control areas where the fleet is landing. Players can activate Planetary Defense Cannons to take down the Illuminate fleet, as seen in the trailer. Additionally, SEAF troops will assist in defending the cities, either fighting independently or following Helldivers to provide temporary backup. However, players must remain cautious of civilians still present in the streets, as *Helldivers 2* emphasizes both combat and friendly fire management.

The Heart of Democracy update is a testament to Arrowhead\\'s long-term commitment to *Helldivers 2*, following its record-breaking launch last year. Addressing concerns about the studio\\'s focus, Arrowhead CEO Shams Jorjani firmly stated that *Helldivers 2* remains their primary focus. He mentioned that while a small team will slowly work on \\\"Game 6\\\" later this year, the main effort will stay on *Helldivers 2* for the foreseeable future.

Jorjani also provided insight into how long content updates for *Helldivers 2* might last, stating, \\\"As long as you folks keep playing and buying Super Credits we can keep it going.\\\" He acknowledged past challenges but highlighted the positive turnaround, crediting the continued support from players for the bright future of the game.
