How to unlock new titles in Helldivers 2

Unlocking new titles in Helldivers 2 is as simple as leveling up. Just by playing the game and progressing through the ranks, you’re able to earn new titles to flex your dedication to democracy.

Every five levels unlock a new title all the way through to the level cap. Currently, this is the only way to get new titles in the game, but as a live-service game, that could always change.

Perhaps we’ll see some added as key mission rewards or the Battle Pass-style Warbonds, though this remains to be seen. We’ll be sure to update you here should things change in the coming months.
