Even with the superhuman skills and brutality of a Space Marine, you can die at the hands of the Tyranid swarms in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2. In such a scenario, the ability to revive yourself is essential if you wish to continue fighting. If you find yourself struggling to stay alive, you need to get your hands on a Guardian Relic.

Guardian Relics are support items that can help you survive the relentless onslaught of the Tyranid enemies and complete challenging missions in Space Marine 2. While they’re particularly beneficial in solo play, Guardian Relics can also help you revive when teammates are unable to assist you quickly. Read on to learn how to get and use Guardian Relics.

How To Get Guardian Relics in Space Marine 2

Guardian Relics are usually small, box-shaped items with their names clearly visible. However, if you're rushing through the game without exploring, you might miss them. Listed below are some neat ways for you to get Guardian Relics in Space Marine 2:

Explore The Map Thoroughly

Guardian Relics are scattered throughout the game world, just waiting to be discovered. They’re often hidden in unexpected places, so make sure to explore every part of the map as you make your way through the hordes. You’ll get a decent amount of Guardian Relics simply through your mission routes.

Use Your Weapon’s Crosshair

Another helpful tip for locating Guardian Relics is to hover your weapon's crosshair over dimly lit areas or corners of the map. If the crosshair is pointing at a Guardian Relic, the item's name will appear above it.

How To Use Guardian Relics in Space Marine 2

As mentioned above, Guardian Relics are a must-have self-revival tool in Space Marine 2. When your character is knocked out in battle and a teammate isn't nearby to revive you, you can use a Guardian Relic to get back on your feet. If anything, Guardian Relics provide a faster way to revive yourself compared to waiting for a teammate.

The only problem is, you can only hold one Guardian Relic at a time, and they’re single-use items, meaning they’ll disappear after being activated. As such, you should use Guardian Relics sparingly and instead stockpile them for future use in challenging missions and boss battles in Space Marine 2.
