Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 - PlayStation 5

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 was released on September 9, 2024.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is available on current-gen consoles like the PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 follows Captain Demetrian Titus of the Ultramarines (now a more powerful Primaris Space Marine) as he leads his squad against the ravenous, insectoid Tyranid hordes threatening humanity, uncovering dark secrets, particularly concerning the shadowy "Project Aurora" on the jungle world of Kadaku, while dealing with his own past as a disgraced "Blackshield" and seeking redemption with his Chapter. It's a story of desperate defense, immense scale warfare, and Titus's journey to reclaim his honor amidst galactic chaos.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a third-person, squad-based action shooter that blends intense ranged gunplay with visceral hack-and-slash melee combat, letting players control superhuman Space Marines fighting massive alien Tyranid hordes. It features a story-driven campaign (solo or co-op)
