This month's landmark 400th issue of PC Gamer magazine, which comes in a special collector's edition gold-foil finished wallet along with a separate Top 100 games to play on PC today mini-mag, delivers world-exclusive access to Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, the explosive new third-person shooter and hack-and-slash from Saber Interactive.
For the cover feature, PC Gamer traveled to Paris, France, to go hands-on with the game for several hours, both in its single-player campaign and co-op multiplayer modes, as well as interview key team members working on the project. And, from what we've played so far, this is the most epic-in-scope depiction of WH40K's world to date. Grimdark greatness awaits!

A fascinating read.
This issue is jam-packed with quality previews, too, including going hands-on with portal-filled new arena shooter, Splitgate 2, as well as Zephon, Promise Mascot Agency, Concord, Surpervive, Norland, and various indie games from the OTK Expo.
