Now, having launched today in full for everyone who purchased the game, the game has seen even more impressive player numbers.

As per SteamDBWarhammer 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).
