Arrowhead Game Studios has released Helldivers 2 hotfix 1.007.203 on PlayStation 5, PC and Xbox Series X/S. The hotfix, out today, November 11, is a focused round of crash and bug fixes, and it also unblocks cosmetic modifications on PC.

Cosmetic Mods

On PC, the hotfix fixes an issue that prevented certain cosmetic mods from functioning.

Crash Fixes

The hotfix addresses three crash scenarios: a crash that could occur when receiving poison or gas status effects inside Hive World caves; a crash on PC when exiting the game; and a crash on PC at boot when the game had issues with writing permissions on Windows.

Hive World Caves

Fire now works and can spread inside caves, after a fix for an issue where it did not work there at all. The hotfix also fixes a Hive World cave generation issue where large assets could spawn outside the cave and block mission progression and Stratagem call-ins.

Known Issues

Arrowhead lists several known issues remaining as of today, including the LAS-44 Nova's scope field of view being wider than intended and reflections becoming corrupted on RDNA 2 and RDNA 3 AMD graphics cards when Reflection Quality is set to its lowest option.
