If you can’t play Helldivers 2 because the servers are currently buckling under the massive strain players are putting on them, then the next best thing is to watch someone else play it on Twitch – and there is another incentive to do so aside from averting boredom: Twitch Drops.

Twitch Drops are available for many games and reward users for watching streamers that show these titles, creating a positive spiral of community marketing. In most cases, these rewards are cosmetic items to kit your characters out with. Helldivers 2 is no exception, as viewers can gain the TR-117 Alpha Commander armor set via Twitch Drops at the moment. How exactly you can get the Helldivers 2 reward is explained below.
