Want to make your Helldivers 2 game even cooler? Lots of players are making cool changes to the game since it came out, called “mods“! These Helldivers 2 mods can change how things look and feel. But, Helldivers 2 doesn’t officially say “yes” to mods yet.
So, be careful! If you try to use super powerful Helldivers mods that give you unlimited grenades or make you super strong, the game’s super strong police (anti-cheat) might kick you out and ban you. That’s not fun!
But don’t worry! Most Helldivers 2 mods are just for looks. These helldivers mods let you dress up as characters from other games or change your weapons and armor to look awesome. Just remember, right now, only YOU can see these changes, or your friends who have the same hell divers 2 mods. Let’s check out some of the best Helldivers 2 mod options right now!

1. No More Capes Mod
Ever wonder what your super cool armor looks like from behind? The “No More Capes” mod is super simple! It just makes capes disappear in Helldivers 2. If your cape is acting weird and looks like cardboard, this mod fixes it! Playing without a cape can make the game feel new and maybe even like you can move faster! But, if you love collecting capes from the game’s Warbonds, this mod might not be for you.
2. Toggle HUD and Visor Effects Mod
Helldivers 2 is full of action! Sometimes, all the numbers and words on the screen (HUD) can get in the way. The “Toggle HUD and Visor Effects” mod lets you hide all that stuff with just one button! This makes the game feel more real and lets you see all the pretty planets and alien places without anything blocking your view. It’s also great for taking awesome screenshots!
This mod can hide your ammo count, grenade count, mission timer, and everything! It even cleans up the loading screens. Helldivers 2 has some settings to hide parts of the screen already, but this mod hides everything with one press. Just be careful not to hide the buttons you need to press to pick up items, or you might miss important stuff!
3. First-Person Perspective Mod
Want to see Helldivers 2 like it’s a first-person shooter? The “First-Person Perspective” mod does just that! It makes you see the game from inside your helmet. It’s like looking through your character’s eyes!

This mod is super funny! Instead of carrying a big bomb, the “Maxwell Portable Hellbomb” mod lets you carry a cat named Maxwell! The mod maker asks you to take good care of him.
Enemies might think he’s cute, right up until he explodes like a nuke in 10 seconds! It’s a hilarious and deadly surprise!

There are even extra loud options if you really want to jump when you hear them!
