With its release just weeks away, Saber Interactive has released full details about how customization works in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2.
Players will be able to customize their characters in the game within the Armouring Hall. Within the Hall, players can select their class, equipment, perks, and more. But how can you make your character truly unique?
Customization in Space Marine 2
According to Saber Interactive, each class will come with a number of pre-made armor sets that get unlocked by playing in either PvE or PvP modes. You can also create custom armor sets.
“This is where your creativity shines,” they said. “Various designs of helm, pauldrons, breastplate, wargear, gauntlets and greaves can be unlocked by playing in multiplayer modes.”
Within the customization options in Space Marine 2, there is an “Astartes Chapters” tab. This tab lets you access different presets that represent Space Marine Chapters. Customizing your armor allows you to choose different paint, emblems, and color patterns.
The game also allows customization for Heretic Astartes characters in the game.
“Each class corresponds to a specific Traitor Legion (for example, Assault will always be represented by a Night Lords Raptor), but you can change the colours and apply different emblems,” they said.
The last thing detailed are unique customization elements that are able to be unlocked with each trailer. Emblems, armor parts, and colors are all able to be unlocked for Adeptus Astartes, Heretic Astartes, Unknown Foundings, First Founding, Second Founding and Successor Chapters.
“On launch, over 30 different Chapters have their colours and heraldry available to unlock,” they said. “Whilst some of them are exclusive to the Season Pass, the majority of them are available to unlock through game progression.”
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 launches on September 9 of PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
