Space Marine 2 is out now. If you don't know anything about the universe or haven't played the original, we've got you covered.

In the shorter term, Space Marine 2 will get free new classes and will take lessons from the long-term success of the studio's previous horde shooter, World War Z, which has offered plenty of post-launch content to help establish a loyal player base that keeps coming back, years after the game's original launch.

Alexander McMorran, a well-known voice actor with roles in big-name video games like Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes and Hitman 3, brings Chaplain Quintus to life in Space Marine 2. As one of the leaders of the Ultramarines, Quintus' importance becomes increasingly apparent throughout the game.

Unfortunately, Space Marine 2 is not currently available on Game Pass. There is no information as to whether or not it will ever make its way onto Microsoft’s subscription service, either. However, it’s not all doom and gloom, as Game Pass still has plenty of superb games that have been added to its library in recent weeks.

Space Marine 2 has only delved into one small slice of the tabletop source material’s sprawling grimdark sci-fi fantasy universe, and fans are eager to know where it might head next. While the developers at Saber Interactive haven’t confirmed exactly what Space Marine’s next chapters will entail,

Space Marines 2’ developer Saber Interactive is already thinking about possible DLCs and future games in the series. The third-person-shooter only released on 9 September, though the company’s CEO Tim Willits has revealed game director Dmitry Grigorenko has already “proposed some story ideas that could either be DLC or a sequel”.
