There’s nothing more important than knowing your Helldivers 2 enemy. Their strengths and weaknesses, how they behave, and more specifically, when they spawn are all essential to building your survival knowledge. It’s time to fight back, Helldiver.

Here are all the enemies you can encounter in Helldivers 2.

Helldivers 2 finds itself in the midst of a Galactic War… for the second time. A common enemy, the Terminid, rises to rise against the humans, taking out planet farms and innocent people. While humanity won the first time around against the Terminid, Illuminates and Cyborgs, the new Automaton faction threatens the Super Earth. Invading from the East and West, the two factions control every planet in the solar system. It’s up to you to stop them.

Each Helldivers 2 faction has its own long list of enemies that you’ll encounter in each mission. The list grows as you progress through the difficulty levels, with each operation completed on the highest difficulty available. As the Terminid and Automaton forces grow in number, with more Outposts and Nest settlements popping up on each planet, the enemies continue to grow in stature.
