Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 – Hang Out and Play it with us Live

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is so close we can almost taste the ichor. 

Our friends at Focus Interactive have given us the jump, sneaking up on it like a Lictor conditioned to play video games. You can watch as the game’s Creative Director Oliver joins our very own Simon and Alex for an exclusive edition of Hang Out and Play, which is broadcast on Twitch from 4pm.

Warhammer 40,0000: Space Marine 2 will be available on early access from tomorrow – provided that you preordered the Gold or Ultra editions. The rest of you will have to wait until Monday 9th of September to get your hands on it. The game goes on general release on Monday the 9th of September, and it will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Steam, and Epic Games Store.

And there’s more to come alongside the impending release of the biggest game of the year.

Fight Tyranids Live (in VR)

Take one step further in Lieutenant Titus’ very large shoes with Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine VR – Defenders of Avarax, which is coming to Zero Latency arcades across the world from the 25th of September. You and up to seven players can become Ultramarines and battle the invading Hive Fleet Leviathan. Check out this trailer and pre-book your places now – the first 5,000 bookings worldwide will earn a limited edition collectable coin.

 

Lieutenant Titus Has Been Busy…

You’d think that battling xenos would take up all of his time, yet somehow this examplar of the Space Marines has managed to cameo in three other video games this month: you can find him in Warhammer 40,000: Tacticus, Warhammer 40,000: Warpforge, and Warhammer Combat Cards too.

Merch for the Merch God

The Warhammer Merch Store has amassed a pile of awesome stuff to celebrate the launch of the game, including JOYTOY action figures of Titus, Chairon, and Gadriel with two loadouts, custom controllers available on pre-order, Displates, and an exclusive Warhammer 40,0000: Space Marine 2 merch box available until the 30th of September. The whole collection is here.

Soundtrack the Slaughter

For some tunes to listen to while hobbying or gaming, you can’t go wrong with the epic soundtrack from Space Marine 2 by Nima Fakhrara and Steve Molitz, which is available from the 9th September alongside numerous Warhammer video game soundtracks from Laced Records.

Turn Your Room into a Space Marine Shrine

Warhammer Art and Displate have both released new art to adorn your walls. There will also be a new Displate Limited Edition featuring Titus and his battle brothers taking on the Tyranid horde coming later this month.

While you’re waiting for your chance to play Space Marine 2, this week’s episode of Loremasters is all about the hero of Graia himself. It is available to watch right now, and if you’re still looking to get hold of a Titus miniature, Space Marine 2 Warhammer 40,000 recruit sets are coming later this year.
