Saber Interactive and Focus Home Interactive have reiterated their plans to continue supporting Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 for “years to come”.
Following the announcement of the “bigger and better” Space Marine 3, the studios confirmed the team’s dedication to the second game, promising that “no one is abandoning the game” because of the new title.
Space Marine 2 will be supported for years
In the latest patch notes for Space Marine 2’s upcoming 7.0 update, Saber “set the record straight” with fans.
“Space Marine 3 does not mean the end of Space Marine 2’s development. Far from it,” the studio confirmed. “No teams are shifting over, no one is abandoning the game, and our plans to bring more awesome content to Space Marine 2 remain.”
Saber teased that the team is working on “much more content and surprises for the months to come, such as a new class, more operations, melee weapons, and more”. The studio even jokes that data miners haven’t uncovered all of their secrets just yet so we’ll have to keep our eyes peeled.
“This announcement simply marks the genesis of a new project, years away from release,” the team said. “We’ve made a decision and have just started the process.”
With Saber aiming to give the third game a considerable jump in scale, Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 3 will take a long time to create. Combined with continued development of Space Marine 2 Operations, new enemies, PvP and more, as well as a unique Horde Mode, there’s tonnes of goodies coming.
