Focus Entertainment has announced thatWarhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2has been delayed to the second half of 2024.
Space Marine 2was revealed during The Game Awards 2021 but it wasn’t until the Summer Game Fest this year that a “winter” release window was initially revealed by the publisher and developer Saber Interactive.
However, in a new statement shared today (viaPC GamesN) in a Focus Entertainmentpress release,Space Marine 2has been pushed back significantly and will now launch sometime in late 2024.
“Focus Entertainment will reveal the official launch date of the highly anticipatedWarhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2– the iconic Games Workshop license – in early December,” the statement reads.
“The game is now poised to ship in the second half of 2024, to provide the time needed to properly polish the game and to ensure the best possible experience.
“Focus Entertainment is committed to releasing a game that is of the highest quality and that exceeds the expectations of the countless fans of the franchise.Space Marine 2has already accumulated over a million wish lists to date."
It’s highly likely that the new release date will be revealed during The Game Awards, which are set to take place on December 7, especially if you consider that the game’s initial announcement, first gameplay trailer, and release window were all shared during events all ran by Geoff Keighley.
