The Warhammer 40K universe is known for its rich lore, with Space Marine 2 releasing soon on September 9th. Fans are very eager to see their favorite universe come to life in video games once again after many years.
With Saber Interatice at the helm, players are hoping to see a better game that will not only offer a great gameplay experience but also allow the developers to put some attention on the unfortunate abandonment of the game called Space Hulk: Deathwing, as players would love to play as terminator classes.
Players Want Space Marine 2 to Include Classes from Abandoned Game
For those who don’t know, Space Hulk: Deathwing, released in 2016, was a first-person shooter that allowed players to step into the heavy boots of the Dark Angels’ Terminator squad. Despite its glaring issues and bugs, the game left a long-lasting impression on the fans, especially those who loved the Terminator armor and the fierce combat it brought.
Space Marine 2 is looking to bring the series back to its glory, and after seeing various details, players are super excited to play the game. But this also started a few thoughts in their minds; they are speculating that if the upcoming game finds great success, developers will be looking for more variety.
Reddit user TheSilentTitan expressed similar thoughts on the forum, which led to the whole community buzzing. Players are now speculating if the abandoned game and its armor will ever get the chance to shine once again or not, even though they might not suit the gameplay (armor sizes) very much.

Players are already imagining commanding a squad of Deathwing Terminators as they battle through all the chaos, equipped with their iconic storm shields and power fists.
As fans eagerly await the release of the much-anticipated sequel, they are hoping for the inclusion of the Deathwing chapter and especially the revival of the beloved class. In the end, Space Marine 2 has the potential to strike the right balance of gameplay innovation and faithful representation of the lore.
