Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has launched successfully, attracting a peak of 134,302 concurrent players on Steam within the first 24 hours, ranking fifth on the platform despite only being available to Gold and Ultra edition purchasers. However, players quickly encountered significant server issues, especially with the "joining server" problem after completing missions, leading to frustrations expressed on social media. Focus Entertainment has acknowledged these technical problems and is actively working on fixes. Even though reviews are currently "Mostly Positive," players are reporting additional issues, including graphics driver complications and a lack of ultrawide support. Space Marine 2 is set for full launch on September 9, 2024, for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

What are the main issues players are facing with Space Marine 2?

Players are primarily experiencing server connection issues, problems with graphics drivers, and a lack of ultrawide support. Additionally, there are complaints about crashing during the first cinematic and other technical complications.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is a highly anticipated sequel set in the iconic Warhammer 40K universe, known for its rich lore and intense battles. The game combines third-person shooting elements with a strong narrative, allowing players to take on the role of Space Marines fighting through hordes of enemies. This sequel builds on the legacy of the original Space Marine game and is aimed at both fans of the franchise and newcomers looking for an engaging shooter experience.

It's great to see Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 making waves with such a strong launch, but it's a bummer to hear players are running into server issues right out of the gate. Hopefully, Focus Entertainment can iron out these kinks quickly, because a smooth experience is key to keeping that momentum going
