While it’s taken a while, Helldivers 2‘s modding scene looks to be starting to take off. This is all thanks to a helpful new tool developed by the folks behind a very cool Star Wars mod pack for it.
Instead of concentrating on taking part in the Galactic War – which currently sits in a bit of an unnerving state as folks wait to see if the Meridia black hole will actually trigger the arrival of The Illuminate – this group of modders has been busy digging into the game to make their creation possible. While they’re not done with the Space Earth Clone Wars just yet, they’ve also released something that’s allowing others to make some more fun Helldivers crossovers.
If you head to Helldivers 2’s Nexus Mods page right now, you’ll see that it’s starting to fill up with skin swaps made with help from the Overlord Modding Team’s ‘Helldivers 2 Modding Tool for Blender 4.0‘. This mod basically makes it easier for folks to edit Helldivers 2’s textures, meshes, and materials using – as you might expect given the title – a Blender add-on.
