Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine II Highlights the Heavy Bolter Weapon

Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment have released a new video for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II showcasing one of the weapons players will use, the Heavy Bolter. The weapons “tear through the Tyranid swarms with its enormous clip and devastating shells”. The publisher also recently revealed another weapon, the melee Chainsword. Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II will launch on September 9 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam. Saber Interactive recently announced that Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine II will take players about 12 hours to beat.

The game’s details via the publisher:

Play as Lieutenant Titus and Fight the Tyranids in All-Out Galactic Warfare

Continue the story of legendary Ultramarine Lieutenant Demetrian Titus a hundred years after the events of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and fight the endless Tyranid swarms to defend the Imperium. Unleash Titus’ superhuman skill and wide-ranging arsenal solo, or with up to two friends playing as Titus’ battle-brothers Chairon and Gadriel in seamless drop-in/drop-out co-op.

Customize Your Space Marines and Loadouts in Player-Versus-Environment and Player-Versus-Player

Battle as one of six playable classes (Tactical, Assault, Vanguard, Bulwark, Sniper, and Heavy) in “Operations” (player-versus-environment) and “Eternal War” (player-versus-player) modes, and make them your own with Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II’s deep customization system for armor and weapons.

In “Operations” mode, use Armory Data and experience earned on the battlefield to upgrade each class with up to 25 perks to shape your playstyle. Armory Data will also let you level up your weapons with each new mission to unlock more powerful variants and unique cosmetics. The armor and weapon cosmetics earned in “Operations” will even be available for your “Eternal War” matches, though your perks and weapon upgrades will remain exclusive to the player-versus-environment experience for balancing purposes.

More Missions, Enemies, and Weapons Coming in Free Updates

Following the game’s launch on September 9, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II will add new “Operations” missions, player-versus-player maps, enemies and weapons to fight them with through regular free content updates for all players. Additional cosmetics and Chapter heraldry will release as part of the Season Pass, with no microtransactions or in-game cash shop involving premium currency.
