FULL STORY
======================================================================

The planned public beta session for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has been 
canceled by developer Saber Interactive. 

Announced in an official Steam post , the studio revealed that the move was 
in order to concentrate resources on getting the game polished for launch in 
September this year. " Space Marine 2 is almost ready. We are now entirely 
focused on optimization, polish and fixing remaining issues ahead of launch 
on September 9," the announcement read. "This means we will not run a public 
online beta, as it would take the development teams away from preparing for 
the full launch, and our priority is to ensure the best possible experience 
at release." 

To soften the blow a little for those who had already signed up, players who 
registered before June 28, 2024 will receive a limited Bolt Pistol skin. 

Not long ago, Saber Interactive published an official gameplay reveal video , 
in which we saw a whole host of weapons, a brilliant presentation of the 
Warhammer 40K aesthetic, and were given a closer look at the game's modes. 
This really whetted our appetite for the game, and we are as excited as ever. 

However, the reaction to the public beta has been mixed. Some fans speculate 
that the developers are just prioritizing keeping the (Thunder) hammer down 
to make the game launch in its best state, while others think this might be a 
red flag and an indication that the game is in bad shape right now. 

Regardless, for now, with the public beta now removed from the game's path to 
launch, all we can do is directly look forward to its release on September 9, 
2024, on PlayStation 5 , Xbox Series X |S, and PC. You might also like... A
