Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 isn’t just the game of the summer, it’s the Game of the Year. Offering unmatched quality from gameplay to graphics, performance, and overall package, there’s no better game so far, and no weak spot to try and pick apart. Diehard fans will love it, new fans will adore it.

The Adeptus Mechanicus at Saber Interactive have earned the Omnissiah’s blessing by ensuring that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 appeases The God-Emperor’s followers. The latest quest of Captain Demetrian Titus against the Tyranids will quench the yearnings of the bloodthirsty, the warhungry, and those who seek to purge the Tyranids and the Forces of Chaos. All hail the God-Emperor of Mankind for bestowing upon us the magnificence of Space Marine 2!
Gamer Guides - Nathan Garvin - 77 / 100
Visceral combat, excellent set pieces, and plenty of Warhammer 40,000 fanservice, but is there enough launch content to satisfy less die-hard fans?
Gert Lush Gaming - Jim Smale - 9.4 / 10
Every Warhammer game recently has raised the bar of quality and this has exceeded all those before it, Even if you do not like Warhammer 40k, it is a fun solid shooter.
Glitched Africa - Marco Cocomello - 9 / 10
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 offers a thrilling campaign and an engaging post-game grind mode. However, the limited number of Operations missions and the lack of replay value in the campaign may hinder the game’s long-term appeal. Despite these flaws, the game’s authenticity and exhilarating action make it a must-play for fans of the genre. It is 2024’s much-needed blockbuster
Nexus Hub - Andrew Logue - 8 / 10
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a polished, respectful and epic sequel with exciting gameplay – but also one that loses some of its predecessor’s simple charm and humour.
Pixel Arts - Sina Farahani - Persian - 8 / 10
if you enjoy shooting and action games, value character customization, appreciate small-scale 12-player online competitions, and miss the 8-10 hour story campaigns of the 7th generation, this game might be worth the $70 price tag—especially if you’re a fan of the Warhammer 40K universe. Created by fans for fans, the game successfully delivers on its promise, despite a few minor technical issues. If the atmosphere of the Warhammer 40K world appeals to you, you’re in for an exciting experience.
Prima Games - Enzo Zalamea - 9 / 10
Warhammer 40K Space Marine is a brilliant hack-and-slash action-adventure shooter with three defining game modes to lure in all types of players. While there is a game mode for everyone, everything boils down to the gruesome brutality of what a Space Marine brings to the table.
The Outerhaven Productions - Jordan Andow, Keith Mitchell - 4 / 5
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II was a blast from start to finish. Only held back by a limited accessibility offering and some technical issues.
VideoGamer - Craig Robinson - 8 / 10
Space Marine 2 is a solid successor to Space Marine, fits well into the Warhammer universe, and offers engaging and fun action combat and shooting mechanics. It is slight marred by a limited map pool creating repetitiveness in the game’s multiplayer progression-based features.
XboxEra - Jesse Norris - 9.2 / 10
Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine 2 is an amazing, epic ride through a glorious hellscape. Visceral combat is matched by stunning graphics to create a title that never relents in being as over the top as possible. It is one of my favorite titles of the year so far, and one I cannot wait to dive back into as post-launch content starts to stream in.
Zoomg - Afshin Piroozi - Persian - 7.5 / 10
Overall, despite some issues, Space Marine 2 is a very valuable game for two groups of players: first, those who love the Warhammer universe and will greatly enjoy immersing themselves in the game’s world; and second, gamers who are interested in Co-Op experiences and can play Space Marine 2 with their friends. In this case, some of the game’s problems, such as AI weaknesses, are less noticeable. The brutal and bloody action, along with the appropriate atmosphere of the game’s world and the Operations mode, are other positive features of the game. If you enjoy exciting action titles, you will probably also greatly enjoy Space Marine 2.

This is probably the most honest review I have seen, that points to gripes I would have playing through it, as opposed to the way other articles and videos have glossed over those very concerns I had while watching gameplay footage. Thanks for including it!
