Time on Helldivers 2’s icy planets is over (for now) because your platoon is expected in the jungle on June 13 at 0900 hours. It’s time for the Viper Commandos to come out and play. Don’t worry—the jungle isn’t Malevelon Creek.

Viper Commandos is the latest Helldivers 2 premium Warbond and has the typical 1,000 Super Credits price tag. This Warbond offers two armor with a new passive ability (finally), two weapons, more utility, and cosmetics to help you survive and camouflage inside the jungle. While fewer weapons and armor are included in this Warbond, the exclusive vehicle patterns (camo) may be a sign of what’s to come for Helldivers 2‘s customization.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Viper Commandos premium Warbond release date in Helldivers 2.

Viper Commandos Warbond was announced on June 6. With a release date of June 13, Helldivers can briefly wait in anticipation for two new weapons, a Booster, a Throwing Knife, and a new armor passive that may alter Helldivers 2‘s current meta.

The Helldivers 2 official X account confirmed the Viper Commandos Warbond releases on June 13 at 9am CT / 10am ET / 3pm BST / 12am AEST, just a few hours later than the usual Warbond drops.

Below, you can see exactly how many hours and minutes are left to wait until the Warbond drops.

With a focus on quality over quantity, Arrowhead is reducing the sheer volume of Helldivers 2 patches, alongside limiting its monthly premium Warbond releases. This slower cycle should introduce new ideas to Helldivers 2, as demonstrated with the Viper Commandos vehicle camos available on June 13. While a longer wait time between Warbonds is expected with the shift in quality, you can expect more camo options included in future premium Warbonds, alongside unique armor, new passives, and weapons to experiment with.
