A Free New Operations Map and a Slew of Cosmetics for Season Pass Owners!
Today’s update takes players back to the burial world of Demerium with a new Operation titled “Obelisk,” available today to all Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II players for free! In addition, players will now have to face the Tzaangor Enlightened and avoid its deadly, fast-paced attacks as it careens across the battlefield on its Disc of Tzeentch. Stay alert, as this new enemy will be found in every Operation (player-versus-environment) mission featuring the Thousand Sons from now on.
Season Pass owners also receive the “Dark Angels Chapter Pack,” which comes with a new Champion skin for the Bulwark class, three weapons skins for the Plasma Pistol, Auto Bolt Rifle and Power Sword, a new Storm Shield skin and over 40 unique cosmetics celebrating eight of the Dark Angels Successor Chapters.
PlayStation 5 Pro Support, FSR 3, and Frame Generation for DLSS Are Now Available
On top of today’s gameplay additions, the “Obelisk” update comes with a number of tech improvements for console and PC players alike. PlayStation 5 Pro owners can now enjoy the grimdark atmosphere of the 41st millennium with increased maximum resolution at up to 60 frames per second in Performance Mode and 30 frames per second in Quality Mode thanks to the PlayStation 5 Pro’s Spectral Super Resolution technology, allowing for upscaled 4K resolution. PC players can also now take full advantage of AMD’s FSR 3 and Nvidia’s DLSS3 with the addition of frame generation support.
