This week, Helldivers 2<\/u><\/a> celebrated the first anniversary of Malevelon Creek<\/u><\/a>, the game’s most famous battle that saw participants holding the line on the jungle planet against a massive automaton incursion. A new robot offensive to take the Creek is currently ongoing. But despite having a war to fight, one errant helldiver chose to commemorate the battle outside of the game entirely, recreating Malevelon Creek in Minecraft.<\/p>\n

That player is Helldivers 2 YouTuber Red Monster Thing, who posted a video of his bespoke Malevelon Creek map earlier this week (via Reddit<\/u><\/a>). And I have to say, it’s an impressive creation. The map features detailed recreations of automaton factories, complete with buildings like laser gun turrets, signal disrupters, and the eye of Sauron-style detector towers.<\/p>\n

There are also automaton dropships suspended in midair as they fly new units into battle, while Helldivers 2’s super destroyers are also visible in orbit around the planet. There’s even a detailed recreation of the interior of one of those super destroyers, complete with parked Pelican 1 transport shuttle.<\/p>\n
