You're welcome. I edited the post to add extra info from the related PS blog post. I'll investigate now if they said something else in the Discord.
Edit: no extra info in their Discord
Of course, but I'd say not in this update. I think they'll keep that for October 26th, the Liberty Day:

I assume they'll release the review bombing recovery cape that day too.

Update is pretty good from the trailer, but I'm pretty much done with the game.
I’m sure someone is screaming “what!? No illuminate faction!?” but the addition of new enemy units to existing factions can evolve combat itself. I’ve mentioned before that they could be potentially teasing a new faction for a year or three.
Decent timing with the update. 6 month mark. Will check out the game again then

I don’t think so.
I think they are gonna make a big marketing beat out of it. I can see it done during a SoP or showcase with. New CGI trailer
Time will tell.
Seeing how things have been done before in Helldivers 2, I believe they will simply show up in the game as a surprise.
