When Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 became available in early access for Gold and Ultimate Edition owners last week, it became instantly clear that the action title was going to attract quite the audience, seeing a peak of over 134,000 concurrent players on Steam. Now, having launched today in full for everyone who purchased the game, the game has seen even more impressive player numbers.
As per SteamDB, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 saw a peak of 225,690 concurrent players on Steam on the day of its full release (with over 183,000 concurrent players on the platform at the time of writing). That’s the highest peak concurrent count to date for a game developed by Saber Interactive, as well as for a Warhammer title, surpassing Sega and Creative Assembly’s Total War: Warhammer 3’s peak of over 166,000 concurrent players.
In our review of the game, we awarded it a score of 9/10, saying, “Brutal action, mind-boggling scale, spectacular set-pieces, and a bevy of content come together in what is one of the best action games in recent memory. Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is unmissable.” Read the full review through here.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
