Helldivers 2 Leak Reveals Ministry of Science E-711 Experiments — Here’s What’s Next
The Ministry of Science just dropped Super Earth’s darkest dossier yet: a classified E-711 report on the official Helldivers 2 X feed that reads like an SCP nightmare—and warns that sharing it could be treason.
Helldivers 2 just slipped us its creepiest lore drop yet, and it reads like someone at Arrowhead binged SCP one night and said: what if we did that, but with democracy?
The 'classified' E-711 file, in plain English
On September 30, 2025, the official Helldivers 2 account on X posted a so-called classified report about E-711. The tone was very: share this and it is treason. Inside, Research Group #37 says they have been testing concentrated E-711 on everything from ant colonies to deck chairs. Most of it is blacked out, but the big takeaway is not subtle.
nanoscopic black holes that started absorbing everything within the room
That is either the most alarming lab note ever written, or the sneakiest tease for the gravity toys players have been begging for since launch. Maybe both.
Why fans smell black hole stratagems
Players have been asking for black hole grenades since day one. Now that E-711 is being found in the Gloom, Arrowhead suddenly has the perfect lore excuse to make that happen. The file even describes a test subject that pulled in the entire room before being contained. They call it an accident. Super Earth calls that a prototype.
Timing also looks suspiciously convenient: Liberty Day lands in three weeks. Previous years gave us the Constitution rifle and tactical armor. This year? Do not be shocked if concentrated E-711 from those hive worlds we keep clearing (or dying on) gets spun into actual gravitational weaponry.
What the new toys could play like
Picture calling down a stratagem that drops a short-lived gravity well. Chargers, Hulks, those clingy Harvesters — all dragged into a hungry little void. The friendly fire potential alone is very Helldivers. There is even a clip floating around from October 1, 2025 where a player labeled their chaos 'Opened the gates of hell.' Feels less like a warning and more like a sales pitch.
The creepy mind-control angle
Buried in the ingestion tests is a note that subjects became 'incapable of forming democratic thoughts.' If that phrase sets off Illuminate alarms in your head, you are not alone. The implication is spicy: E-711 might be touching tech or biology that links all three enemy factions — Terminids, Automatons, and the Illuminate — in ways we have not seen yet.
Wait... controllable pets?
The report also name-drops 'controllable pets' as an experiment outcome. That is not subtle. If Arrowhead goes there, we are talking some kind of companion or taming system. Imagine dropping onto a Terminid world and rolling out on Charger-back while your squad fires from the saddle. That is full Monster Hunter energy, with a cape made of freedom.
Mechanically, it reads like E-711 could override Terminid neural networks. Lore-friendly, sure. Reliable? Please. If Super Earth has taught us anything, it is that your new biological BFF will turn on you the second your back is turned — which, frankly, fits the Helldivers vibe perfectly.
What this probably is
This smells like Arrowhead pressure-testing big ideas in public. They have teased weapons and factions this way before, gauging community appetite before flipping the switch.
- The document dropped September 30 with a treason-flavored 'classified' warning, courtesy of the official Helldivers 2 X account.
- Research Group #37 claims concentrated E-711 caused room-eating mini black holes; most other results are redacted.
- Players have wanted gravity gear forever; finding E-711 in the Gloom gives a neat lore bridge to add it.
- Liberty Day is three weeks out. Past events delivered the Constitution rifle and tactical armor, so a gravity kit reveal tracks.
- Speculation includes a stratagem that yanks in Chargers, Hulks, and Harvesters — with glorious friendly fire baked in.
- Ingestion tests say subjects could not form 'democratic thoughts,' which screams Illuminate interference and a possible cross-faction thread.
- The file literally mentions 'controllable pets' — as in tamable Terminids or AI-directed companions — which sounds amazing until they inevitably eat you.
Final thought
If Arrowhead is seeding the field, I am in for both the black hole toys and the chaos of rideable bugs. What E-711 contraption are you hoping for? Would you mount up on a Terminid, or is that a bridge too far even for managed democracy?
