Eagle-Eyed Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Fans Spot Chapter All-but Confirmed to Get Cosmetic Pack After the Dark Angels

ign.com:

This week, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 publisher Focus Entertainment released a new trailer, below, showing the DLC coming to the game as part of its first year of post-launch updates. It confirmed the imminent arrival of the Tyranid Hierophant Bio-Titan enemy type, the new Neo-Volkite pistol, and the hotly anticipated Dark Angels chapter cosmetic pack.

But, it seems, that is not all it confirmed.

Eagle-eyed fans have also spotted a number of pieces of DLC neither Focus nor developer Saber Interactive have announced, although some of it has been strongly hinted at via datamining. First up, we see what looks like confirmation that the Ravenwing chapter of Space Marines is set to get a cosmetic pack after the Dark Angels get theirs.

In the video, we see the menu screen for the Dark Angles cosmetics, and at the top of the screen we can see the Raven Guard symbol next in-line.

This tallies with datamined assets of the Mark 6 Corvus and Mark 7 Aquila Astartes helmets, which strongly suggests Saber plans to expand the game’s Space Marine customization beyond variations of the latest Mark 10 Tacticus power armor.

Space Marine 2, which is set in Warhammer 40,000’s current and ongoing Indomitus Era, features Primaris (bigger, stronger, better) marines and thus focuses on the latest armor sets in the tabletop. However, this datamine suggests old favorites are potentially on the way, and it’s the “beaky” helmet popularized by the Raven Guard chapter of Space Marines that’s got Warhammer 40,000 fans most excited.

What we don’t know at this point is which Space Marine 2 class is set to receive the Raven Guard skin. The Heavy already has one, and, soon enough, the Bulwark will have its Dark Angels skin. That leaves the Assault, Sniper, Tactical, and Vanguard up for grabs.

The expectation is the Raven Guard skin won’t be released before 2025, with Season 2 set to kick off very soon and run until the end of the year. Season 3 sounds like a decent bet.
