How many weapons are there in Helldivers 2?

At launch, there are 29 Primary weapons, 8 Secondaries, 12 Stratagem Support weapons, and 10 Grenades, that lead to a current total of 59 weapons in Helldivers 2.

However, not all of these weapons appear to be currently obtainable, at least as of writing.

While most weapons are unlocked by earning and spending Medals on Warbonds, the total of what's available to earn from these don't add up to the total number of weapons the game lists inside of the Armoury screen.

It's our guess that some of these are going to be rolling out over time through various means we've yet to see, whether that be via secrets inside of missions, orders given for the community, or something else entirely.

It's worth keeping up-to-date with the latest news and ongoing events in-game if you're curious to know when these might show up.
