The long-awaited crossover between Helldivers 2 and Halo 3: ODST is finally here. Arrowhead Game Studios has introduced a Legendary Warbond packed with classic ODST weapons, armor, and cosmetics, giving players a chance to fight for democracy while looking like the iconic Helljumpers. Here’s a breakdown of how to unlock everything inside the Obedient Democracy Support Troopers (ODST) Warbond.
How to Access the ODST Warbond
The ODST Warbond is available through the in-game Acquisitions Center (Superstore) for 1,500 Super Credits. Unlike standard Premium Warbonds, you cannot use a Premium Warbond Token to unlock this Legendary tier.
Once purchased, all rewards are unlocked by spending Medals, earned from completing missions and objectives. Fully clearing the Warbond requires 637 Medals in total.

The Warbond officially released on Tuesday, August 26 at 8:00 a.m. EDT, coinciding with the Xbox launch of Helldivers 2.
All ODST Weapons in Helldivers 2
The crossover adds four classic Halo weapons, each adapted for Helldivers gameplay:
- MA5C Assault Rifle (35 Medals)
- A faithful recreation of Halo’s classic AR, featuring a 32-round magazine, digital ammo counter, and balanced accuracy. It has medium armor penetration, making it versatile across enemy types.
- M7S SMG (50 Medals)
- The silenced ODST submachine gun, complete with a suppressor and 48-round magazine. It’s lightweight and can even be used one-handed in Helldivers 2, perfect for stealth approaches.
- M90A Shotgun (65 Medals)
- A pump-action powerhouse that delivers devastating close-range damage. While its armor penetration is limited, it’s highly effective against Terminids and Illuminate swarms.
- M6C/SOCOM Pistol (75 Medals)
- The ODST magnum pistol, equipped with an integrated suppressor. Not the most powerful firearm, but its silence and one-handed usability make it valuable for tactical play.
All ODST Armor Sets
Two Halo-inspired armor sets are included in the Warbond, both based on Halo 3: ODST characters. Each comes with the Feet First passive ability:
- A-9 Helljumper Armor (45 Medals + 30 for Helmet)
- Modeled after the Rookie’s armor. Grants 50% quieter movement, immunity to leg injuries, and increases point-of-interest detection range by 30%.
- A-35 Recon Armor (55 Medals + 45 for Helmet)
- Worn by Dare in ODST. Includes the same Feet First ability, making it ideal for reconnaissance and stealth.
Cosmetic Rewards in the ODST Warbond
Beyond weapons and armor, the Warbond includes nine cosmetic items, such as:
- Capes: Honored Heirloom and Eye of Clandestine (8–25 Medals each)
- Player Cards: Honored Heirloom & Eye of Clandestine variants
- Titles: Rookie (20 Medals)
- Vehicle/Exosuit Skins: Mean Green pattern set (20–55 Medals each)
These cosmetics round out the Warbond, letting players fully embrace the ODST look.
Page Unlock Requirements
The ODST Warbond follows a page system where you must spend Medals to unlock later rewards:
- Page 1 total: 140 Medals (initial weapons, armor, and cosmetics)
- Page 2 unlocks after spending 135 Medals — 232 Medals total for its items
- Page 3 unlocks after spending 280 Medals — 265 Medals total for its items
- Grand total: 637 Medals to unlock everything
Should You Get the ODST Warbond in Helldivers 2?
At 1,500 Super Credits, this Warbond is more expensive than any previous premium Warbond. Still, the inclusion of four iconic Halo weapons—particularly the Assault Rifle and Shotgun, which rank among the strongest in their categories—makes it a compelling choice.
If you’re a dedicated Helldiver or a Halo fan, the ODST crossover offers both powerful weapons and nostalgic flair. Completing the full Warbond requires dedication (637 Medals total), but the payoff is a loadout that combines functionality with the unmistakable ODST style.
