Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is Already Europe’s Second Biggest New Release of the Year
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has got off to an impressive start, not only because of the acclaim it’s enjoyed from critics and audiences alike, but also because it’s been attracting players in large numbers- to the extent that it has already outsold some of the biggest new releases of the year in Europe.
That’s as per GSD data shared on Twitter by GamesIndustry’s Christopher Dring, who says Space Marine 2 has already become the second biggest new game release of the year in Europe. The only new 2024 title to have sold more in the region is Helldivers 2, which means Space Marine 2 is tracking ahead of the likes of The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Tekken 8, F1 24, WWE 2K24, Star Wars Outlaws, and Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown.
Shortly after its release, publisher Focus Entertainment revealed Space Marine 2 had crossed 2 million players across all platforms.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is unmissable.” Read the full review through here.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
For Europe, Space Marine 2 is already the 2nd biggest NEW game this year, after just 2 weeks. It's behind Helldivers 2, but ahead of Last of Us 2: Remastered, Dragon's Dogma 2, Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth, Tekken 8, F1 24, WWE 24, Star Wars Outlaws and Prince of Persia (GSD)
