However, players can also see that aside from the free battle pass, there’s also theHelldivers 2 Cutting Edge Warbondactive now, so you won’t just be deciding if the Steeled Veterans pass is worth it, but asking: is it better than what else is available? We’ll cover all the details on the Steeled Veterans Warbond in Helldivers 2 below, including if the weapons within are any good, if it’s worth the price, and how it holds up to the other battle passes.

There are 25 separate items in the Helldivers 2 Steeled Veterans Warbond to be earned, split across three pages and increasingly expensive (in terms of Medals) as you move down the battle pass. As you spend through earlier pages, you’ll unlock later ones, having to hit a certain amount of Medals spent before the game will permit the second and third pages. Below, we’ve listed everything you can get in the Steeled Veterans pass, as well as how much it costs and a brief explanation of anything that tweaks the gameplay.

That being said, you clearly don’t have to buy every cape and player card on the pass to progress through, though you can’t just reach the final page buying only essential weapons. Speaking of which - is it actually worth making it through to the final page? Yes, the Warbonds arehow to unlock weapons in Helldivers 2, but are these particular weapons worth unlocking?

If you’re uncertain about whether to buy the Steeled Veterans Warbond in Helldivers 2 and are wondering if it’s worth it, well… the answer is yes and no, depending. On the one hand, you can get it for free if you grind the Super Credits, so eventually it’s probably worth going for it. On the other hand,there’s better equipment and weapons in the Cutting Edge pass,if you don’t have it already, and none of the Steeled Veterans gear is especially remarkable, even the Dominator on Page 3. Meanwhile, the Sickle and standard Breaker in the free and Cutting Edge passes make up two of theHelldivers 2 best weapons.
Of course, the Steeled Veterans Warbond will be around forever - unlike other games, Helldivers 2 doesn’t put its battle passes on a timer - so you have more than enough time to work up to it or consider if you want to buy it.
