What is Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2?
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a third-person shooter developed by Saber Interactive and published by Focus Entertainment.
Players can go it alone, but they can also team up with others.
Fun combat and well put-together PvE missions make this a treat to play.
Launch is only the beginning, with new foes, missions, and more coming in the months ahead.
To be clear, I don’t think this is a bad thing at all.
It would be easy for the layers of destruction to fall into cacophony, but instead the battles sing.
Unfortunately, one major complaint is a complete lack of HDR support.
Titus is reinstated, but in the grim darkness of the Imperium, whispers never disappear.
This is something I really hope the team chooses to add in the future.
There are also some colorblindness prefs for the game’s Parry and Dodge warnings.
Should you play Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2?
Dozens upon dozens of creatures are rendered onscreen at once.

Owners of the Gold or Ultra Editions can start playing early on September 5.
If you crave unending combat and glorious destruction, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is calling.
Build the Space Marine you want to be.
There’s a dedicated campaign and co-op PvE missions, while the Eternal War lets you at other players.
Plus, there’s more coming through post-launch support in the months ahead.
Warfare is ugly, but it sure can be pretty.
You’re surrounded, but they’re outmatched.
Power Sword, you were at my side all along.
A Thunder Hammer is a marvelous piece of tech. It’s also a hammer.
