Defend The Imperium In Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 On Nintendo Switch 2

Focus Entertainment and Saber Interactive have announced that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is in development for Nintendo Switch 2.

In this sequel to 2011’s Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine, you must fight back the enemies of Mankind as Lieutenant Demetrian Titus in either solo or co-op for up to three players.

Promising “intense, gory, and fast-paced third-person action with hundreds of enemies on screen,” you must embody the superhuman skill and brutality of a Space Marine as you unleash deadly abilities and devastating weaponry to obliterate relentless Tyranid swarms.

There are also “endlessly brutal and replayable PvE and PvP modes” in which you play as your own Space Marine. You can customise the perks, weapons and appearance of seven playable classes, with more than two years of post-launch support having introduced new missions, game modes and challenges to complete.

The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:

Defend The Imperium In 3-Player Co-op: Fight the enemies of Mankind as Lieutenant Demetrian Titus in this sequel to 2011’s Space Marine, and prove your loyalty once again as you are reinstated to the Ultramarines. Hold at bay the horrors of the galaxy in epic battles on far-flung planets and uncover dark secrets to drive back the everlasting night.
Purge The Relentless Tyranid Swarms: Dive into a war of galactic proportions! Enjoy intense, gory and fast-paced third-person action with hundreds of enemies on screen, and purge the relentless Tyranid swarms made possible by Saber’s trademark Swarm Engine.
Build And Play Your Own Space Marine: Jump in endlessly brutal and replayable PvE and PvP modes as your own Space Marines, unlocking new skills and cosmetics the more you play! Fight as one of seven unique classes, unlock up to 25 perks for each class, add perks to each of your weapons, and customise your appearance with a huge array of armour and weapon cosmetics!
Fight Against The Odds In Siege Mode: Tear through unending waves of Tyranid and Chaos assaults and fight to survive as long as you can in the unforgiving 3-player Siege mode. Accumulate points with each wave you defeat to spend on ammunition, equipment charges, Medicae Stimms and more… or use them to summon reinforcements like Cadians, Space Marines or the mighty Dreadnought.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 will be released at retail and digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch 2 worldwide “this holiday season.”
