With both the CEO and fans sharing how excited they are about the game, Space Marine 2 is shaping up to be a major contender for not just an action game of the year, but perhaps a GoTY contender.
Space Marine 2 is the Highly Anticipated Sequel in the Warhammer Franchise
Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 throws players back into the brutal and dark universe of Warhammer 40K. The story will follow Lieutenant Titus of Ultramarine chapter, accompanied by his fellow Space Marines Chairon and Gadriel, who can be controlled by other players in the game’s cooperative multiplayer mode or by artificial intelligence (AI) in single-player.
It is set in the far and dark future of the 42nd Millennium where humanity is in constant war against monstrous Tyranid enemies. Players will encounter not only the Tyranid swarms but also the forces of Chaos and will be able to combine melee and range combat against different levels of enemies.
Space Marine 2 also features a separate cooperative mode named “Operations,” and three 6v6 competitive multiplayer modes: Annihilation, Seize Ground, and Capture and Control.
All that said, Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 is poised to be a great game, and fans believe it has great potential.
Even before release, the fanbase seems huge as old and new fans are jumping on the bandwagon and can’t wait for the game to be released.
