Publisher Focus Entertainment and developer Saber Interactive shared a new block of gameplay for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II.
Here’s a rundown on the new details, plus the new gameplay:
Play as Lieutenant Titus and Fight the Tyranids in All-Out Galactic Warfare
Continue the story of legendary Ultramarine Lieutenant Demetrian Titus a hundred years after the events of Space Marine and fight the endless Tyranid swarms to defend the Imperium. Unleash Titus’ superhuman skill and wide-ranging arsenal solo, or with up to two friends playing as Titus’ battle-brothers Chairon and Gadriel in seamless drop-in/drop-out co-op.
Customize Your Space Marines and Loadouts in PvE and PvP
Battle as one of six playable classes (Tactical, Assault, Vanguard, Bulwark, Sniper, and Heavy) in “Operations” (PvE) and “Eternal War” (PvP) modes, and make them your own with Space Marine 2’s deep customization system for armor and weapons.
In “Operations” mode, use Armoury Data and experience earned on the battlefield to upgrade each class with up to 25 perks to shape your playstyle. Armoury Data will also let you level up your weapons with each new mission to unlock more powerful variants and unique cosmetics. The armor and weapon cosmetics earned in “Operations” will even be available for your “Eternal War” matches, though your perks and weapon upgrades will remain exclusive to the PvE experience for balancing purposes.
More Missions, Enemies and Weapons Coming in Free Updates
Following the game’s launch on September 9, Space Marine 2 will add new “Operations” missions, PvP maps, enemies and weapons to fight them with through regular free content updates for all players. Additional cosmetics and Chapter heraldry will release as part of the Season Pass, with no microtransactions or in-game cash shop involving premium currency.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is set to launch on September 9th, 2024 across Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
