Freedom Alliance Presents

Live Dive: Pelican Down

Pelican Down was an immersive audio experience created by the Freedom Alliance. It was first unveiled on February 24th, 2026.

Pelican Down was designed to be experienced as you played Evacuate High-Value Assets missions on the Terminid front, which were active from Feb 24th – 27th, 2026.

The Evacuate mission type has been changed since we launched, so Pelican Down has been retired, and our live lobbies are no longer available. Big thank you to the Helldivers community for playing!

Want to learn more? Read about the project on the Freedom Alliance website, or go behind the scenes with our Making Of deep dive.
