Helldivers 2 update 01.003.202 patch notes: No more warping around shuttles

Arrowhead has published yet another update for Helldivers 2 on August 5, 2025, for PC and PS5. Patch 01.003.202 has several crucial fixes in store, such as solving an issue preventing players from accessing items tied to DLC or Warbonds they purchased.

The developers also eliminated three sources of game crashes, including one that would occur when players customized their weapons. 

Adjustments have been made to the brand-new teleporter players can carry with them — the LIFT-182 Warp Pack. Its visual effects are no longer displayed when in first-person mode, as they looked a bit excessive from that perspective, and players can no longer use the gear to escape from evacuation shuttles at the end of a match… Some players out there really are battle junkies, huh?
