Alongside a release date for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2’s Anniversary patch, Saber Interactive shared a roadmap for upcoming Year 2 content. The next major patch arrives in Q4 2025 and adds a new PvE mission and mission pickups. Stratagems, a new PvE mode coming on September 4th, will also receive new rewards and battlefield conditions.

In Q1 2026, Patch 12 introduces the game’s first new class – the Techmarine – who also receives the dedicated Omnissiah Axe. Stratagems gets even more new battlefield conditions, but perhaps more importantly, the Battle-Barge will receive an expansion. Patch 13 drops in the same quarter, adding a new PvE mission, Terminus enemy and progression update.

Then, in Q2 2026, two new PvP arenas and new rewards for Stratagems will be added. PvP players can also look forward to a competitive Stratagems mode. Finally, Patch 15 sees a new Siege map and more Stratagems rewards added later in the same quarter.

Of course, there are also several new Champion Packs and Cosmetic Packs coming for Season Pass 2 owners. Stay tuned for more details and specifics on future updates in the coming months.
