Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 generated plenty of excitement in the lead-up to its release, and that’s being reflected in the size of the audience that it’s attracting.
Taking to Twitter, publisher Focus Entertainment announced that Space Marine 2 has been played by 2 million players across all platformers since releasing in full on Monday, September 9.
Upon its early access release for Gold and Ultimate Edition owners last week, Space Marine 2 saw a peak of over 134,000 concurrent players on Steam. When the game launched in full earlier this week, that number grew to over 225,000 concurrent Steam players, the highest ever for any Warhammer game or for any game developed by Saber Interactive.
