It turns out some Helldivers 2 players cheated in order to help complete the latest Major Order, and as a result their, uh, pet fish have been killed. Helldivers 2 isn't exactly the hardest game in the world, but it's not like there isn't a good challenge to it either. Even still, as with any online game, there are some that just want to circumvent that challenge altogether, and as shared on the Helldivers 2 subreddit, an in-game message from Arrowhead notes that there were some cheaters, albeit this was delivered in-world as always. "Super Earth High Command has detected a large batch of counterfeit samples within the delivery of the last Major Order," reads the message.

Helldivers 2 cheaters might want to check on their pet fish, because Arrowhead has a humorously brutal punishment for those that hack the game
