Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 is already off to a strong start, netting a 24 hour peak of 134,302 concurrents. Its start was good for fifth overall on Steam's charts despite only being able to players who purchased the Gold and Ultra editions of the game.
But it wasn't an entirely flawless victory for the anticipated sequel. Players soon reported problems with joining the server, including members of the IGN staff. Fans quickly took to X/Twitter and other forums to express their frustration with the experience.

Similarly, while Space Marine 2's Steam reviews currently sit at "Mostly Positive," a few fans complained about graphics drivers and a lack of ultrawide support, among other issues.
