Warbonds
Warbonds are reward tracks in Helldivers 2, accessed through the Acquisition Center.
Overview
Warbonds allow Helldivers to spend 
Medals to unlock new gear, such as Weapons, Armors, Stratagems, Boosters and Cosmetics.
They are structured into unlockable pages, requiring a set number of Medals to be spent on the Warbond to progress through each page.
The Standard Warbond is free, whereas all other Premium and Legendary Warbonds must be unlocked with 
Super Credits.
Warbonds do not expire, allowing Helldivers to progress through one or multiple at any desired pace.
Lore
Warbonds are primarily designed and deployed by the Ministry of Defense, with some occasional cooperation from other Super Earth Ministries when needed.[1]

FAQ
The following FAQ is sourced from the HELLDIVERS™ Official Discord [2]
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| How do the Warbonds work? Is it a pay-to-win model? | The goal with our Warbonds is to provide players with different gameplay experiences, but not unfair advantages when comparing the content.
We designed Warbonds as an optional way to support Super Earth's war effort in the game and get access to additional gear for your Helldiver. Warbonds are unlocked with Super Credits, which can either be discovered at points of interest during missions or purchased through the in-game store. Once you own a Warbond, you can then use Medals you’ve been awarded in-game to unlock more content. |
| How often will new Warbonds be released? Can we preview the content in them? | |
| If I only want one item from the Warbond, do I still have to pay to get that item? | Yes, you must unlock the Warbond itself before you can spend medals on the items in it. |
| Can you progress two Warbonds at the same time? | Yes you can progress your Warbonds any way you choose. If you have 2 Warbonds unlocked you can spend your first 50 medals in Warbond 1 and then switch and spend 50 medals in Warbond 2. |
| Can old Warbonds be purchased a year from now? | Warbonds are evergreen, so players are welcome to take their time in unlocking, and we'll be keeping things fresh with future updates containing new Warbonds to choose from. |
| Are all the items in the Warbond strictly cosmetic? | No, Some of the items in Warbonds have passive effects attached to them. |
| Will progressing through Warbonds separate me from other players? | Nope! You will always be able to play all our content updates with other players who have only bought the base game. All other future updates, for example enemies, environments and missions will be free for everyone who's bought the base game. |
| Will Warbonds contain stratagems? | |
| Can you still earn medals without an active Warbond? | You will always earn medals, no matter if you have outstanding Warbonds, completed Warbonds or no Warbonds. |
| Is it possible to buy the DLC packs directly? Like buying a Warbond with money and not requiring you to buy the premium currency? | You will not be able to buy the Warbonds directly with real money. You would need to purchase a pack of Super Credits and then buy the Warbond. |
| Will all future Warbonds contain some amount of Super Credits? | Right now, the Warbonds we have designed contain SC. However, not every future Warbond will contain Super Credits but a lot of them will, and the SC inclusion may depend on the theme and size of the Warbond. |
Trivia
Steeled Veterans Premium Warbond was previously included as in the Super Citizen Edition DLC, later replaced with the Premium Warbond Token.
