Helldivers 2: Destroying Hulk – How to defeat the heavily armored robot

In Helldivers 2 there is a unit of robots that make many Helldivers wet the bed at night, and those are the Hulks. How you can destroy these heavy metal blocks and what their weaknesses are, you will find out here.

Update, February 6, 2026: The article has been reviewed and is up to date.

The Hulks are large armored robots equipped with heavy weapons. They either patrol the landscape or stand guard and protect a checkpoint. Either way, they are dangerous in Helldivers 2.

Therefore, we will name two weaknesses that will definitely make a Hulk explode.

Destroying Hulks in Helldivers 2 – How to find them

How to find a Hulk: The Hulks in Helldivers 2 can only be found in the red sectors of the robots. Use the world map and select an operation on a robot-infested planet.

Once you land, it’s best to seek out a patrol or a checkpoint. Hulks are considered “heavily armored enemies”, so you must have at least the difficulty level “Medium” activated to encounter them on missions.

This is what the Hulks look like in Helldivers 2:

How to destroy the Hulk: Once you’ve spotted a Hulk, you must weigh which weakness you want to target. There are two points:

  • The glowing red vent on the back
  • The glowing red face in the middle of the torso

If you are in a team, someone can draw the Hulk’s fire to make its back vulnerable. But be careful, as the Hulk can move and turn quickly. If it is equipped with rockets, find cover.

If you are going solo, aim for its face. A precise shot at the glowing red slit will make the structure collapse and be destroyed.

The weapons you should bring for the fight against Hulks include the Anti-Matter Rifle, One-Time Anti-Tank, the Recoil-less Rifle, the Railgun, the Automatic Cannon, and the Spear. In our tests, the Anti-Matter Rifle and the Recoil-less Rifle especially proved themselves.

Orbital cannons like the Laser or the Railgun can also bring the Hulk to its knees. If these are on cooldown, tactical equipment would be the more efficient choice of destruction.

That was the most important information about the Hulks. Which robots do you find the most annoying? Let us know in the comments!
