Helldivers 2 players have always been relentless when it comes to uncovering hidden details, and that obsession doesn’t stop at in-game secrets. They dig deep into the game’s files as well. And this time, dataminers claim to have uncovered something huge: in-game evidence of Cyborg units.
As the community pushes closer to the long-anticipated assault on Cyberstan, these discoveries suggest that these well-known enemies may already be lurking in the shadows, waiting for their moment to emerge.

According to recent leaks from the dataminer, Plamen6789 on YouTube, the game already includes three Cyborg enemy types. They have been found hidden in Helldivers 2’s files, and they are: Radical (Non-armoured version), Agitator (Armoured version), and the terrifying Vox Engine.
Each of them is designed to crank up the chaos far beyond what players face in standard Automaton missions. From the video, it is clear that the Radical is a fast, aggressive unit that likes to overwhelm players with its numbers.
On the other hand, the Agitator looks like a walking nightmare thanks to its heavy armor and massive health pool, especially if the power unit on its back isn’t destroyed.
Then there’s the Vox Engine, which stands out as the most intimidating of all: essentially a fortress on the move. Taking it down won’t be easy (no feet to target as it has tracks), requiring coordination, firepower, and probably a few heroic sacrifices.
I don’t have the patience to wait. I MUST know my enemies.

Very interesting that we’ll soon for the 1st time fight humans that willingly oppose Super Earth.

Fans are excited to finally face the anticipated enemies. Why? Because together, these enemies would make missions far more dangerous, intense, and engaging. This is the kind of escalation that elevates the Helldivers 2 experience to its absolute peak.
Cyborg History Explains Why Their Return Feels Inevitable
For longtime fans of the franchise, they know that the Cyborgs are far from new. Players have faced these enemies in the first game. Their origins trace back to human miners on Cyberstan who enhanced themselves with cybernetics to survive the planet’s harsh conditions.
Over time, those augmentations led to rebellion against Super Earth, turning them into one of the most brutal enemy factions in the original Helldivers. And Cyberstan wasn’t just another battlefield to take the chaos of the war; it was their homeworld.
With Helldivers 2 finally taking us to the Cyberstan storyline and Automatons actively terraforming the planet, many fans believe the Cyborgs’ return was inevitable. So this leak just reinforces that.
Whether they emerge as a part of the Automaton faction, a new enemy force, or something far more unpredictable, we will have to wait and see. All in all, the datamined evidence has only fueled speculation. If these leaks prove accurate, Helldivers 2 may soon become more dangerous and a lot more exciting.
Are these datamined Cyborgs a sign of what’s coming next, or content that was never meant to see the light of day? Comment below to let us know.
