PvP multiplayer will return in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 in addition to a brand new cooperative mode.
The information was revealed in a new trailer which was first shown off during the Warhammer Skulls Festival live stream and detailed the upcoming third-person shooter’s multiplayer modes. Fans of the first game will be happy to know that its PvP modes (which include Annihilation, Seize Ground, and Capture & Control) will be returning in the sequel.
This is in addition to an all-new cooperative ops mode, which will allow you to team up with one or two friends to kill aliens. PvP and co-op modes will feature six distinct classes to choose from, each with their own playstyles and abilities. They range from the tanky Bulwark, armed with a powerful combat shield, to the stealthy Sniper equipped with a camouflage cape. You can get a glimpse of some of the modes and classes in action by seeing the trailer for yourself below.
Just like the miniatures of Warhammer 40,000 tabletop game, you’ll be able to customize the appearance of your Space Marine with a handful of cosmetic options such as different color schemes, various decals, and numerous armor designs. Some cosmetics can be obtained by all players through progression while others will be available as part of a paid season pass. The game will receive free updates after its release bringing new content such as additional missions and new weapons.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is scheduled to launch on September 9, 2024 for PlayStation 5, Xbox series X, Xbox series S, and PC. You can pre-order the game now, with four separate editions to choose from, including an expensive collector’s edition that includes all downloadable content (DLC) at launch and an absolutely massive resin statue of a Space Marine.
