Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a 2024 third-person shooter with hack-and-slash elements, developed by Saber St. Petersburg and published by Focus Entertainment. Set 200 years after the first game, players control Ultramarine Captain Demetrian Titus, who, after a suspicious demotion and heresy accusation, battles a Tyranid invasion across multiple planets. The game features a 12-hour solo or three-player co-op campaign, blending melee and ranged combat against hordes of enemies. Additional modes include Operations, a co-op PvE mode with endless missions, and Eternal War, a 6v6 PvP mode with three classic game types: Annihilation, Seize Ground, and Capture & Control. Players progress through a system to unlock abilities and face increasing difficulty.

There is a fair amount of diversity in the Ultramarines, but it makes sense, given that Ultramar is a massive portion of the Imperium.
However, it doesn’t make sense in other chapters like the space wolves. In the newest update, a black space wolf is one of the three new models, and that’s woke. Space Wolves == space Vikings, and there were no black Vikings, no matter what Ubisoft fans might want to believe.
Revising my score to woke-ish. The rest of the game is still a blast.
