Din Djarin is the iconic Mandalorian who fathers Grogu and led the siege to retake Mandalore after the fall of the Empire. Din Djarin is an incredible character in the Star Wars universe, and the titular Mandalorian now enters into the company of Super Earth. Hopefully, they’re paying good credits and Beskar Steel if he’s risking his life.
This outfit looks incredible and fits right in for Helldivers 2’s best armor sets. To obtain this armor, players will see a replacement in the model of the 
FS-05 Marksman Armor and helmet set, as well as the invisible replacement for the Liberty Herald cape.
6 Star Wars Enemies (Automaton Replacers)

The Automaton faction is deadly and intimidating, but this mod will replace their armies entirely with B1/B2 Battle Droids, Droidekas, and far more Star Wars enemies. The Automaton Replacers mod is perhaps the best Star Wars mod in Helldivers 2, as it replaces the entire faction of robots with the Separatist droids, providing a gateway into the Star Wars universe as Clones battle it out against Droids.
Helldivers 2: Best Warbonds to Get (& Why)
With a new Warbond battle pass releasing every month, here are the ones players should consider buying first in Helldivers 2.
With this mod, every fight will feel like something out of the Clone Wars, and fighting clankers feels extremely rewarding and satisfying here, proving that Helldivers 2 is the game for Star Wars players to enjoy as they embrace the Clone Wars.
5 Star Wars Ships (Super Destroyer and Extraction Shuttle Replacers)

- Mod Creator: Kboy, Irastris
- Mod Link
Whilst players do not get to fly ships in Helldivers 2, they are important set pieces that help to create layers of immersion in the game. Each player has their own dedicated ship, and this mod will replace said ship with Star Destroyers from the Republic era. Every ship in orbit will feature this design, showcasing the grand scale of the Republic over Super Earth.
The other addition to this mod is the fact that the escape ship, Pelican-1, is replaced with a Republic Gunship. The detail on the models looks great, and it shows the boundless imagination and concepts that the fan community can come up with.
4 Commando

Whilst Clone Troopers lead the charge against the Separatists, it’s the Clone Commandos who get the most respect. These elite variants of the Clone Troopers have been genetically altered and trained to commit themselves to the most dangerous Black Ops missions, and they fit perfectly in with the aesthetic of Helldivers 2’s most elite squads.
With the Commando mod, players can become a Clone Commando, running around the battlefield to destroy bugs and bots alike as one of the elite units of the Grand Republic’s army of millions of soldiers, taking on the role of one of their best.
3 Laser Blaster Sound Effect

- Mod Creator: Exoterminator

The sound design for Helldivers 2 is incredible and really helps to bring the alien worlds and dangers to life. Yet, there are some ways that players can bring forth Star Wars into the sound, and a mod by Exoterminator does just that, allowing players to enjoy some sound effects from iconic blaster weapons across various Star Wars films and games.
With the Laser Blaster Sound Effect, the players’ guns will have audio replacements, which really combines well with other mods to help make an immersive Star Wars simulator where war ravishes multiple worlds.
2 DC-17M Star Wars Republic Commando

- Mod Creator: StringyBean6
- Mod Link
This mod replaces the SMG Defender with a DC-17m which is seen in use by Clone Commandos. The model looks good, and the sci-fi aesthetic lends itself to the space fantasy of Star Wars mixed with Helldivers 2.
The mod pairs great with sound effects mods and outfit mods, bringing forth the gear and cosmetics that players need to bring the Star Wars action directly to them in Helldivers 2. Hopefully, more iconic Star Wars weapons make their way into the modding scene.
1 Clone Trooper (Phase 2 – 501st Legion)

- Mod Creator: Kboy
- Mod Link
One of the earliest mods in Helldivers 2 still remains one of its best. This Clone Trooper mod allows players to enter into the deadly battlefield of Helldivers 2 as a Clone Trooper wearing Anakin Skywalker’s 501st trooper armor. Adorned with the blue colors responsible for Order 66’s Jedi Temple Purge, this outfit is one of the more iconic ones to take into the fight.
The mod acts as a replacement for a variant of the B-01 Tactical armor and helmet and even provides an invisible cape to wear so that nothing gets in the way. For cosmetics, it’s a fun mod and just the beginning of what’s possible with Helldivers 2 mods.
