Helldivers 2: How to Get the Free Malevelon Creek Cape Reward

One of the highlights of Helldivers 2 is the global campaign, giving the entire player base a shared goal to work towards. Each and every player is able to contribute towards the progress of the story, which has significantly enhanced the entire experience. Not only has this created a ton of engagement within the community, but Arrowhead Game Studios has also used these objectives as a means to reward players with new equipment, such as the recent addition of the Patriot Mech Suit after the liberation of Tien Kwan.

It seems like this was not just a one-off event, as today the developers have announced that players are going to be rewarded with a brand new cape after the recent liberation of the Malevelon Creek planet. Here is how you can get the free 'Fallen Hero's Vengeance' cape in Helldivers 2.

Helldivers 2: How to Get the Free Malevelon Creek Cape Reward

With the latest Major Orders centered around the Automaton invasion on the western front, one of the most popular planets in the game has finally been liberated. Malevelon Creek has been a huge source of memes, with many players dubbing the planet as 'Space Vietnam', due to the limited visibility and the layout being a jungle. It was also one of the more difficult planets in the game, especially since it was one of the first experiences that players had with the Automaton faction at the release of the game.

It seems like Arrowhead Games Studios has leaned into the memes, by rewarding players with a brand new 'Fallen Hero's Vengeance' cape for the liberation of Malevelon Creek. By simply logging in, you should receive your cape; however, if you are unlucky, you might have to wait a bit longer as the reward is going to be individually rolled out to each player. If you have not received your cape, wait a few hours and try logging in again.

PRESIDENTIAL DECREE: The President of Super Earth has officially recognized this day as Malevelon Creek Memorial Day.

This week, in remembrance, all Helldivers will be issued a special commemorative cape, so they may carry the memory of their fallen companions into battle.

Once you see a screen similar to the screenshot provided, you should have received your free cape, which will become available in your Armory.
