Links to Twitter/X are now permanently banned from this community

Honestly, we probably should have done this sooner, but the second best time is now. Links to Twitter, X, or any other alternative such as Nitter, Xitter, etc are now banned.

Please report all twitter/X posts to the Mods for immediate removal.

The only exception we will allow will be screenshots in the event that the associated news cannot be sourced elsewhere.

Let's vote on a new PlayStation banner!

What should we update the community banner to?

The community banner has been Helldivers 2 for quite a while now. It's overdue for a change. Any recommendations?

Personally I was thinking Astro Bot for all the GOTY wins, but then I was thinking Intergalactic. Could also just make it a new generic PS one.

I'll let you all decide.
