Saber Interactive and publisher Focus Entertainment have made it clear that they won’t tolerate toxic behavior in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2. The developer encouraged Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 players to be respectful, pointing out that since players never really know who they're playing with or against in the game's PvP mode, they might find themselves insulting the famous actor Henry Cavill.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a third-person action shooter where players take on the role of a Space Marine, fighting to protect humanity from alien enemies like the Tyranids. The game blends intense melee combat with ranged weapons, giving players a mix of up-close brawls and massive firefights. Players can play Space Marine 2's campaign missions by themselves or with friends in co-op mode. The game received very positive reviews, even catching the attention of Henry Cavill, who gave a shoutout to Space Marine 2 on Instagram.
Space Marine 2 Leaks New Armor Coming to the Game
Online rumors suggest that new Astartes armor patterns are coming to Saber Interactive's well-received Warhammer 40:000 Space Marine 2.
Saber Interactive stated in a community update that it will not tolerate inappropriate behavior in the game and will take action to ensure the gaming environment remains positive and respectful for all players. It encouraged players to play with loyalty and maturity, pointing out that one never knows what someone else might be dealing with in their personal life or how their day is going. On a humorous note, the developers emphasized that players should be respectful, as they might unintentionally be rude to actor and Warhammer 40k fan Henry Cavill. This relates to Cavill’s Instagram post where he revealed he was playing the game with his username hidden, meaning other players could encounter him without realizing it.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Team Commits to Tackling Toxic Behavior
In addition to talking about player behavior, the developers also gave a sneak peek at upcoming updates. Saber Interactive is planning a hotfix soon to address Space Marine 2 crashes and improve stability, along with some quality-of-life improvements. These updates include more customization options, like new colors for armor lenses, and a free 4K Texture Pack for PC players.
Additionally, in October, a new map will be added to the Space Marine 2 Operations mode, set on Planet Kadaku. In this mission, Space Marines will join forces with Cadian troops in a final attempt to take down giant Tyranid structures before the planet is completely taken over.
The developers also highlighted their commitment to fixing bugs and enhancing the game overall. While players wait for future updates, Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment want to make sure that toxic behavior is not accepted moving forward.
