The due to the sheer darkness the following showcase will be using a fully custom night vision system along with armors and weapons that are NOT native to the game to allow readers to be able to see, readers and youtubers are requested to not spread misinformation and claim this as a features.

Anyways let's get on with it :

Quite a few of the many helldiver 1 veterans might remember this particular hazard/event from the first game as it's making in resurgence as a potential new planet sided event.

non-final icon

The Planetary Eclipse event/hazard, caused by another much bigger planet covering the sector's sun plunging the map in a darkness of deep blue and on certain maps completely in darkness to the point the only source of lights will be your beacons, Weapon-Mounted flashlights and of course, flare (to be taken with a grain of salt as in the state it's in right now it's borderline unplayable)

As you can see, the clankers still seem to be able to detect helldivers at quite a moderate distance despite the darkness surrounding them (no stealth passives or boosters where used in the showcase) however that being said the automatons too stick out like light bulbs in the darkness too due to their glowing red eyes.

Bugs on the other hand pretty much only see smoke until you start running, shooting your weapon or call down a stratagem (keep in mind that the flare attracts chaff around it like moths to the flame and distracts them as they group up underneath it however will switch aggro to you if you open fire or make noise enough to attract their attention, this is applicable mostly to the bugs and only chaff as chargers and titans don't bother, automatons will only briefly investigate it however often will search around more than just look at the pretty flare in the sky for who called it in)

The flare stratagem is a free objective stratagem that is exclusive offered to operations with the planetary eclipse and will not take any of your current stratagem slots and will be available similar to when super earth gives weapons and stratagems to "test" or "use" such as the free rail cannon strike we had last week.

Much quite similar to the Super colony of Meridia which has now transformed into the comically large suspiciously purple "blackhole", Located in the Altus sector in the first belts that surround super earth, the planet Klen Dahth II is rumored to have something brewing when one of it's neighboring planets will undergo a transformation in which Rings will appear, the planet to be in question holds startling similarities to the planet from starship troopers known as Orejtune along with it's system Klendathu in which it's found so there definitely is some nod to the Star ship troopers franchise.

the planetary eclipse's coincidentally bluish dark tint could definitely be related to this event, given the planet belt leans more towards the bug front this could also tie in to the in the works sub-faction of bugs the predators in which you've already seen the tier 3 hunter based on conversational transcripts.

Followed by conversational transcripts that also point to these

880300193: "All three factions surge towards Super Earth. In sudden synchronicity do Freedom's enemies now act.",

-- Illuminate Secure Dark Fluid Mission --

1873892209: "Find the Dark Fluid. Secure the means to defend Democracy.",

combined with the mystery of missing colonists it does give food to thought

What's quite certain however is that the illuminate are far from being released yet however we would be pleasantly surprised soon

Won't go too much over this part as this one has already been talked about heavily, that being the next warbond - the Primordial themed warbond which I'm quite sure you've seen a lot from youtubers & on this subreddit too,

two medium armors in which one I'm sure you've constantly seen as it has been here since launch so I won't post a 360 round of it but it looks like this

and the the other medium armor which a picture of has been floating around that looks like a picture of sasquatch so here are some better pictures of it
