Helldivers 2, the highly-anticipated sequel of the fan-favorite top-down shooter Helldivers, continues its legacy and takes players on a frenetic adventure through space. With their heads held high, the Helldivers stand in the face of oppression in hopes of spreading peace, liberty, and democracy across the galaxy.

As inspiring as it seems, spreading Managed Democracy to hostile planets while engaging in battles with lethal alien enemies isn’t easy. With increasing difficulty levels and server capacity issues, many players get stuck trying to complete missions in Helldivers 2 and wonder how long it will take before Super Earth is finally free. Fortunately, they'll be able to find an answer here.

Here’s a complete list of all the enemies you can encounter in Helldivers 2 along with their weaknesses so you can quickly defeat them.

How Long is Helldivers 2?

Interestingly, Helldivers 2 has no true end. It can be played for hundreds of hours since there’s always a threat to Super Earth. Additionally, Helldivers 2 is a live-service title. The developers at Arrowhead Studios have plans to add lots of exciting post-launch content, including enemies, new objectives, and biomes to keep things fresh. With that in mind, there really is no limit to how long one can play Helldivers 2.

Many players set personal goals for themselves, such as reaching the max level or collecting all Stratagems and weapons in the game. Those who want to grind to the maximum level in Helldivers 2 are looking to spend anywhere from 35 to 40 hours in the game.

Of course, individual playstyles, skill levels, and the amount of time spent exploring or completing optional content can vary, so the time it takes for different players to finish the game will differ. Plus, the XP gains vary considerably depending on which difficulty level you play.

Players will be able to level up much faster if they play on Helldive mode rather than Easy mode.

Alternatively, if players are looking for quick Terminid extermination sessions with their friends, they can hop into the lobby and complete missions in as little as 10 to 15 minutes. Since there isn’t a campaign to complete or an ending in sight for Helldivers 2, it’s entirely up to players how much time they’re willing to spend in the game and fight back enemy factions before they destroy Super Earth.
