This initial patch focusses on three specific areas of optimisation: introducing better upscaling support, adding advanced visual optimisations, and reducing latency.<\/p>\n<p>The specifics of these updates are slightly different across all platforms, but for PC, it breaks down as follows. On the upscaling side, PC players will enjoy high-end FSR 4.0.3 if you have a GPU that supports it, plus support for regular FRS 3.1.5, DLSS 4.5, and XeSS 3.0.<\/p>\n<p>As for those advanced visualisation options, Helldivers 2 will support variable rate shading after the patch, which dynamically adjusts shading rates in select parts of the image to decrease GPU load. On top of this, Arrowhead has also integrated dynamic resolution scaling, allowing it to adjust on the fly should your screen become filled with bugs, bots, or illuminate. Finally, there&#8217;s added support for latency-reduction tech like Nvidia Reflex and AMD Anti-Lag 2.<\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-video\" data-nosnippet >\n<div class=\"video-aspect-box\"><iframe data-lazy-priority=\"high\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/EgU-4RmshZM\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>All of this is arriving on May 27. But Arrowhead stresses that there are more optimisations to come. &#8220;This is just the opening salvo in an ongoing campaign to improve performance across the fleet,&#8221; the developer explains. &#8220;We\u2019re also preparing a dedicated tech-focused update later this summer to push these improvements even further.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Technical improvements aren&#8217;t the only thing Arrowhead has committed to adding to Helldivers 2 either. Its address to the community included promises for additions like longer in-game events, new vehicles, new red stratagems (i.e. the cool ones that rain down hell from the sky) and more. Whether or not you think Helldivers 2 is bad now (and to be honest, I don\u2019t think it is as bad as some players claim\u2014Steam&#8217;s consensus on the game remains<a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/553850\/HELLDIVERS_2\/#app_reviews_hash\" target=\"_blank\"> Very Positive<\/a> overall), Arrowhead has demonstrated an ability to fix what&#8217;s broken, even if it then breaks it again from time to time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"80feb9ac-901b-4424-8d32-e19017fd70af\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"2026 games\" data-dimension48=\"2026 games\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:661px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:98.94%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"6offQUY4CXebir2TC27dMd\" name=\"kingdom come 2 square\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/helldivers-2-begins-the-long-march-back-into-the-communitys-good-books-with-a-technical-patch-that-represents-the-opening-salvo-in-a-battle-for-better-performance.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"661\" height=\"654\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/new-pc-games-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"80feb9ac-901b-4424-8d32-e19017fd70af\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"2026 games\" data-dimension48=\"2026 games\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>2026 games<\/strong><\/a>: All the upcoming games<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-pc-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best PC games<\/strong><\/a>: Our all-time favorites<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-50-best-free-pc-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Free PC games<\/strong><\/a>: Freebie fest<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-fps-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best FPS games<\/strong><\/a>: Finest gunplay<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-rpgs-of-all-time\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best RPGs<\/strong><\/a>: Grand adventures<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-co-op-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Best co-op games<\/strong><\/a>: Better together<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/action\/helldivers-2-begins-the-long-march-back-into-the-communitys-good-books-with-a-technical-patch-that-represents-the-opening-salvo-in-a-battle-for-better-performance\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Helldivers 2 is currently in the &#8220;it&#8217;s so over&#8221; phase of its live-service cycle.
