Helldiver 2 has it all to become a great game, and even Destiny 2 players are enjoying the game. But this hilarious detail made more than one D2 fan smile.

Destiny 2 Season of the Wish is already in its third month, and players are looking ahead at what’s to come. However, there are still many activities to complete, like Riven’s Wishes, and the collection of all the Starcats spread across Riven’s Lair and the Dreaming City.

Some players said to have been waiting for more content to be released while playing Helldivers 2, and they have detected a familiar voice coming out of a propaganda screen in the game. This was spotted by Reddit user ‘Jonathan7-70’ and was shared in the Destiny 2 subreddit, and the community found these references too hilarious to ignore.

While playing Helldivers 2, this D2 player noticed the voice of Todd Michael Haberkorn, known as The Drifter in Bungie’s sci-fi FPS, coming out of a “Brasch Tactics” propaganda. Some of the phrases and barks present in the video can be indirectly related to his work in Destiny 2 as the all-time favorite rogue light-bearer.

Many Destiny 2 players gathered to comment on the OPs post, and some even wondered if this cameo was intentional, or just a coincidence: “I wonder if this is the job where they asked him specifically to do the drifter voice like he talked about in the charity stream.”

Another player also stated: “Drifter is everywhere. He was also that Crimson Fleet enemy in the game Starfield during the very first mission.” And another one added: “He’s voiced a few people in Starfield, from random crimson fleet, to a trade authority guy.”

So there you have it, next time you are playing Helldivers 2 and hear a familiar voice coming out of one of those monitors, you’ll know it is from the Drifter’s voice actor.
