Everything in the Helldivers 2 Viper Commandos Warbond battle pass

The Helldivers 2 Viper Commandos Warbond is here, and it's the first reworked offering based on feedback from players. Arrowhead have said that going forward they will be focusing on quality over quantity, which means Warbonds will be launching less frequently and contain fewer items overall, but there will be a stronger thematic link between the items and they'll be more impactful.

This is the fifth premium pass launched for Helldivers 2, and the Viper Commandos has a jungle theme running through it so expect a generous amount of camouflage to be involved. Potential highlights include the SG-22 Bushwhacker triple-barrel shotgun that can be carried as a secondary weapon for close encounters, and the K-2 Throwing Knife to fall back on in an ammo-based emergency. How this will all stack up against the Helldivers 2 best Warbond remains to be seen, but if you want to know more then here's a complete listing of contents for the Viper Commandos Warbond in Helldivers 2, along with details of how to get it and what it costs.

All rewards in the Helldivers 2 Viper Commandos Warbond

Unlike previous entries such as the Helldivers 2 Polar Patriots Warbond, there is now a slightly reduced set of 22 different rewards available in the Viper Commandos Warbond that players unlock by spending medals. These include a new primary and secondary weapon, a couple of fresh armor sets for sneaking around the jungle in, new utilities such as the throwing knife, and a whole lot more. I've laid out all of the rewards below, across the pages of the Warbond, along with the medal cost for each so you can plan out which ones to target first.

How to get the Helldivers 2 Viper Commandos Warbond

The Viper Commandos Warbond can be purchased for the standard price of 1,000 Super Credits by accessing the Warbond tab of the Acquisitions Center menu on your Destroyer – press Square to open it.
