Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Artbook Leak Confirms PvP Mode
thegamer.comA YouTuber has managed to get their hands on the art book for Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2, which has seemingly confirmed that the game will feature a PvP mode.
Although we're certainly not short of video games based in the Warhammer universe (to varying degrees of success), there's one that almost everyone would agree is the most anticipated - Space Marine 2.

Although prdalien0 does seem to have come by the art book legitimately, I wouldn't expect the video to stay up on YouTube for very long considering all of the content that it reveals.
