Super Earth High Command has issued a directive that shifts focus from internal affairs back to the galactic front lines. The latest Major Order for Helldivers 2 requires a massive coordinated defensive effort across all three sectors of the war, with a specific mandate to secure the planet Turing.
Galactic Defense Protocol Initiated
After a period focused on internal "dissidence," the war effort has returned to pure combat operations. The new Major Order, active as of November 20, 2025, presents a two-pronged objective that will test the community's ability to manage multiple active warzones simultaneously. To claim victory, the Helldiver corps must complete the following requirements within the next week:
- Global Defense: Successfully repel at least 8 enemy attacks on any planets across the galaxy.
- Strategic Hold: Maintain control of the planet Turing when the order expires.
Completing these objectives will award all participants 60 Warbond Medals, a significant payout for those looking to clear out their latest premium warbonds.
Why is Turing so critical?
While the requirement to defend eight planets allows for some flexibility—you can pick your battles based on active supply lines and planetary modifiers—the Turing objective is absolute. Regardless of how many other defenses are successful, if Turing falls into enemy hands at the exact moment the timer hits zero, the entire Major Order fails. This adds a layer of pressure to the final hours of the campaign, likely requiring a massive troop surge on Turing specifically as the deadline approaches.
Strategy: Managing a Multi-Front War
This order specifically mentions incursions across "all three fronts," implying that players will need to split their forces between the Terminids, Automatons, and any other active threats. The key to hitting the "8 defenses" metric is not just fighting everywhere, but fighting smart. In previous orders, the community has often lost planets by spreading too thin. The most effective tactic here is to identify planets with the highest current liberation percentage and mass-deploy there to secure the win quickly before moving to the next target.
Specific planets like Gaellivare, Alta V, and Diluvia have been flagged as active combat zones. Players should monitor the galactic map for the "Defend" status bars; failing to fill the blue bar before the red enemy bar completes results in a loss, which does not count toward the quota of eight.
With seven days on the clock, the community has time to organize, but ignoring Turing until the last minute could be a fatal error. Keep an eye on the supply lines and ensure that Turing remains isolated from enemy encirclement.
