- Saber Interactive is all set to release Space Marine 2, and at this point, players are discovering new information about the game modes.
- While the gameplay will be hard for sure, the developer has added an innovative feature to make players realize their powers in a merciless manner.
- The CCO of the company also talked about the delayed release of Space Marine 2, which was initially scheduled to be released in 2023.
Space Marine 2 is preparing players to dive into one of the toughest adventures with Captain Titus. When the game is almost knocking at the door, players are still getting loads of updates that are kind of required to understand before jumping into the merciless world of Space Marine 2.
This season, Saber Interactive has added multiple new features to the game, starting from modes to enemy hordes. A lot of updates will come during the next three seasons of the game as well. Everything is to make the game interesting and exciting for players. Keeping this as a goal, the developer has brought another new feature that seems to be a brutal one.
Saber Interactive Is Set to Make the Co-op Mode Overwhelming With One Mechanic
Saber Interactive has taken 13 years to release Space Marine 2. Therefore, the excitement among the Warhammer 40K community has touched the peak, as it is set to get some extraordinary features from the game.
A few days back, the Chief Creative Officer of Saber Interactive appeared for an interview, where he talked about a range of topics, from classes to campaign length. During this session, he even revealed some interesting facts about the co-op missions of the game.
As the discussion progressed, the CCO revealed that the game knows that players have been playing a mission multiple times. Therefore, to keep the mission equally unpredictable to them, it has introduced the Swarm Engine, which will be controlled by the AI Director.
When the Swarm Deck breaks, Tyranids will come running at players until the AI Director kicks in. The enemy attacks will be random, and players need to keep fighting them without a break. He clearly mentioned,
“At some point, you start to feel overwhelmed, and you’re fighting and fighting, and then you just finally make it through with barely enough armor left to survive.”
This is one of the brutal ways to make players understand their powers and restrictions in the game. However, the CCO even talked about the reasons behind the delay of the game.
Tim Willits Revealed the Reason Behind the Unexpected Delay in Space Marine 2’s Release
After Space Marine was released in 2011, the wait to get the sequel was more than a decade long. Though the franchise has been running for 37 years, no installment has ever reached the hype that Space Marine 2 created.
Developers often release unfinished games to meet the scheduled dates or cut short the waiting period. Even Space Marine 2 was initially scheduled to be released in 2023, but then the game got a nine-month delay.
While explaining this gap, Willits expressed,
“We just needed more time to polish it. You know that old saying, a game is only late until it ships, but a bad game is bad forever.”
He revealed that the team wasn’t ready to release an unpolished, unsatisfactory game to ruin the experience.
Therefore, time was required to ensure that every aspect of the game, including the PvP mode, single-player mode, and the campaign, was performing up to the mark.
