‘Space Marine 2’ Gets New Major Update With Patch 4.0
When they said they were updating Space Marine 2 with all new stuff, I didn’t think it’d be this fast! Bio Titans are here!
Yesterday, developer Space Marine 2 developers announced their plans for the coming year. Today they enacted at least the first part of that plan. A new multiplayer operation, Lethal Difficulty, and more have been added to the game as of today, with Space Marine 2 Patch 4.0.
Space Marine 2, Patch 4.0 – Big Bugs Hit Harder
First things first, the new Termination operation. Taking place on the planet Kadaku (which doesn’t sound familiar at all), the Tyranids surge with new power and potent evolutions of biomass in the form of a hierophant bio titan. But fortunately, the Emperor Protects. In this case, he protects with heavy artillery which you and your friends will need to use in order to take out these big bugs.
With so many ‘nids swarming around and giant bugs stomping down being bombarded with heavy artillery that puts the term blast radius to good use, it’s enough to make you feel a pang of the freedom of managed democracy.
On top of that, the Lethal Difficulty is here. This is a new difficulty mode that limits ammo, makes Majoris enemies become enraged (and when they do, they are much deadlier and tougher), as well as getting your armor back from finishers only if you’re close to your allies.
Alongside these two major features, are a number of other tweaks, fixes, and improvements all around. You can find a full list of them here, but these are some of the highlights.
- Photo Mode in Operations (solo only)
- Fencing weapons have had their perfect parry window adjusted
- Chainsword, Power Fist, and Combat Knife charged attack perks do more damage
- Melta Charges do less damage to bosses
This and More in Space Marine 2 Patch 4.0!
