Helldivers 2 Community Seeks Hidden Clues in Black Hole Crisis

by Sebastian Mar 29,2025

Easter eggs and secret messages have long been a staple in many ongoing games, and *Helldivers 2* is no exception. As players navigate the ongoing conflict with the Illuminate, they're meticulously examining messages for hidden details, eager to uncover any secrets Arrowhead might have embedded within.

If you're not up to date with *Helldivers 2*'s evolving storyline, here's a brief recap: Developer Arrowhead reintroduced the Illuminate, escalating the galactic warfare as the latest threat to Super Earth. This eerie adversary is now using a massive black hole to slowly devour entire planets, with its latest targets being Angel's Venture and Moradesh. Interestingly, this black hole was initially created by Super Earth on Meridian in a failed attempt to eradicate a Terminid Super Colony. Arrowhead's narrative style often involves a "yes, and" approach, building on the outcomes of the galactic campaigns, leading to the current scenario where the Illuminate is inching the black hole towards Super Earth.

With Moradesh now under evacuation orders, the Helldivers community is on the edge of their seats, anticipating the next phase of this cataclysmic campaign. Amidst the chaos, some players are delving deeper into the evacuation messages, searching for hidden meanings in Arrowhead's broadcasts.

Reddit user Pinglyadya shared an intriguing image of what appears to be an egg hidden within the Moradesh videos. In the comments, they further analyzed potential morse code sequences, translating them into codes like "045a5, 06efbc, e1b5f0 then 21232." While the purpose of these codes remains a mystery, Pinglyadya encouraged others to "have fun" deciphering them.

The code "06EFBC" sparked further discussion, as it corresponds to the hex code for a shade of teal called "Last Straw," hinting at ominous undertones. While no concrete findings have emerged beyond this, some fans remain convinced that there are secrets yet to be uncovered in these messages.

This isn't the first time the *Helldivers 2* community has embarked on a treasure hunt for secrets within Arrowhead's updates. However, with the Meridian Singularity steadily advancing towards Super Earth, one might question whether the Helldivers have the luxury of time to pursue these mysteries.

In response to Moradesh's destruction, Arrowhead has issued a new Major Order, urging players to defend planets to facilitate the construction of a Penrose Energy Siphon. This device aims to achieve a "one-time reduction" in Dark Energy Accumulation, potentially halting the encroaching black hole and perhaps revealing more secret messages in the process.

*Helldivers 2*'s ongoing, community-driven Galactic War has captivated players for over a year. The Illuminate's invasion in December introduced new enemies and Super Earth colonies, including the game's first urban environments. These new settings feature city streets filled with the Voteless—innocent civilians mind-controlled by the Illuminate, turned into zombie-like beings intent on dismembering players.
