Helldivers 2 Warbonds Buy Order — Value Tiers (August 2026)
Spend first 
Super Credits on packages that still carry Difficulty 7+ kits. Package tiers below follow GamesRadar’s May 6, 2026 Warbond tier list (S: Detonation / Servants / Dust Devils / Redacted / Entrenched). Single-gun priorities (Purifier, Talon, Gas) still favor Polar Patriots / Borderline Justice / Chemical Agents even when GamesRadar ranks the full package lower — see our weapons tier list.

Count: 1 Standard + 20 Premium + 3 live Legendary = 24 live tracks. Helldivers 2 × Warhammer 40,000: Castellan’s Creed went live 12 August 2026 with update 7.0.0 “Devoid of Liberty”, at the standard Legendary price of 1,500 SC — Cadian Kasrkin armour and weapons, and like every Legendary it pays no SC rebate. The unnamed June 2026 roadmap Premium is delayed with no ship date.

Newest Warbond — Castellan’s Creed (Warhammer 40K) + What’s Delayed
Castellan’s Creed — the Helldivers 2 × Warhammer 40K collab — is the newest warbond: live since 12 August 2026 with update 7.0.0, Legendary at 1,500 SC, no SC rebate (as with every Legendary). Announced 21 May, dated by Xbox Wire on 7 August. The newest Premium warbond is still Exo Experts:
Exo Experts dropped April 28, 2026 (PlayStation Blog + wiki.gg) for 1,000. Theme = exosuit operators:
- EXO-51 Lumberer + EXO-55 Breakthrough vehicle stratagems
- MGX-42 Bullet Storm support weapon · SMG-203 Gallant · P-33 Missile Pistol
- O-3 Free Spirit / O-2 Heavy Operator armor + Mobile White patterns
- 300 reclaimable inside the three pages (standard Premium rebate)
What is NOT live yet (Aug 25):
- June roadmap Premium — Arrowhead: “needs more time to cook” (MassivelyOP Jun 29 + GamesRadar Jun 23 citing official Helldivers 2 social). No new date as of this guide.
Previous Premium: Entrenched Division (Mar 17, 2026) — Cremator flamer backpack still grades high on organic fronts.

How Warbonds Work — SC, Medals & Rebates
| Rule | Detail |
|---|---|
| Unlock currency | Super Credits buy the warbond; then spend Medals on pages/items |
| Premium price | 1,000 each (20 live — wiki Super Credits) |
| Legendary price | 1,500 each (ODST + Righteous Revenants) |
| SC rebate | Each Premium returns 300 (100×3 pages). Free Mobilize returns 750. Legendaries return 0 |
| Expiry | Never — evergreen; progress any owned tracks in any order |
| Super Citizen | Edition grants a Premium Warbond token (not Legendary) — pick one free Premium |
| Real-money packs | 150/$1.99 → 13,000/$99.99 (wiki.gg); 1,000 pack ≈ one Premium |
Net cost math: buying every Premium at sticker is 20,000; reclaiming 300×20 = 6,000 from Premiums + 750 from Mobilize softens the ladder if you medal-farm as you go. (Wiki Super Credits page still lists a combined reclaim total of 6,450 in one paragraph — that figure lags the “twenty Premium” count; prefer 750+6,000=6,750 until wiki reconciles.)
Free Super Credits Farming (No Real Money)
You can unlock every warbond without buying SC — it just takes hours. Practical notes (wiki.gg Super Credits + u.gg cost guide):
- POIs on low difficulty: Trivial–Medium spawn denser Minor Places of Interest (pods / cargo / bunkers). Pickups are usually 10, rarely 100.
- Shared on pickup: SC credit to the whole squad instantly — even if you abandon the mission.
- Skip Eradicate: those mission types do not spawn POIs.
- Warbond rebates: always claim the 100 stacks inside each Premium page — effective Premium cost ≈ 700 SC if you finish the track.
- Pace check: community / u.gg cite ~300 SC/hour on efficient trivial routes (higher with lucky 100-stacks). Warbonds-only with rebates ≈ 15.5–16.8k effective depending on Premium count in the source stamp (u.gg Apr = 19 Premium; live = 20).

Methodology & Sources
Catalog + costs are wiki facts; value tiers mix GamesRadar package rankings with single-gun meta.
- Full list / covers / dates / costs: helldivers.wiki.gg/Warbonds + Super Credits (twenty Premium / two Legendary).
- SC economy / farming: wiki Super Credits + u.gg cost breakdown (Apr 2026 stamp — 19 Premium then; refresh count against wiki).
- Newest Premium: Exo Experts — wiki + PlayStation Blog Apr 21.
- June delay: MassivelyOP Jun 29 + GamesRadar Jun 23 citing official Helldivers 2 social.
- Package value ranking: GamesRadar best warbonds (modified May 6, 2026) — browser-verified S/A/B/C lists. Cross-check guns on our weapons tier list.
Sources note: Fandom wiki mirrors exist but dates/costs here prefer wiki.gg. Warhammer 40k Legendary released 12 August 2026 with update 7.0.0 (Xbox Wire 7 Aug carried the date; IGN and Express confirmed it live on the day). It is Legendary at 1,500 SC, not Premium — so it does not move the twenty-Premium count, the 20,000-SC total, or any premium-bundle arithmetic on this page. GamesRadar JSON scrape hallucinated tiers; live DOM text used instead.
