You’ve just started your Helldivers 2 journey, and you might already feel hooked to the Super Earth. When you join the ranks, you’ll start from the bottom, but as you play, you’ll continue to rise until you reach the max level in Helldivers 2.
What is the maximum character level in Helldivers 2?
Originally set to 50, Helldivers 2‘s max level has risen to Level 150 since patch 01.000.200. The grind to reach the highest character level is centered around unlocking Stratagems. You can achieve max level by grinding medium and challenging difficulty levels on your own, or becoming a frequent visitor of the most punishing difficulty known to mankind—the Helldive.
Whatever difficulty you choose will determine just how quickly you reach max level, as XP and Requisitions (cash) are always up for grabs. You must stick around for the full mission timer to get the most out of your deployment. This includes clearing all Outposts, hitting any secondary objectives, completing the mission, and safely extracting from the planet.
Helldivers 2‘s max level follows the same formula as the first installment, giving you a challenging environment with highly difficult missions like the Defend Campaigns against the Automatons. Levelling up is brutal, but the reward for powerful Stratagems is well worth the trouble.
Is there an endgame in Helldivers 2?
Helldivers 2 (in its entirety) is the endgame. It is down to you and your fellow Helldivers to liberate the Sol System, protect the Super Earth, and send the invading factions back from whence they came. The Galactic War continues with or without your help. Each Major Order must be completed within the allotted time to reap the rewards. But regardless of whether you pass or fail, a new challenge awaits just around the corner of the galaxy.
