Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Publisher Asks Players Not to Spoil the Game as Early Access Period Goes Live
Space Marine 2 publisher Focus Interactive has asked players not to spoil the game’s story as its early access period goes live.
In a tweet, Focus published a statement calling on Space Marine 2 players not to spoil the campaign because “every Space Marine out there deserves the thrill of discovering the game’s story on their own.”
“Together, let’s take care of the long-time Warhammer fans and newcomers alike by making sure everyone can enjoy the game without being spoiled," Focus continued. "Your fellow brothers and sisters will appreciate it!”
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2’s global release date is September 9, but those who pre-ordered any of the special editions get early access from today, September 5. (Check out Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2’s global release times to find out when the game goes live in your region.)
Fans have pointed out that it will be difficult to contain spoilers when Space Marine 2’s effective release date is a full four days before its global release date. No doubt fans will be streaming and posting content to the likes of YouTube imminently.
Focus has also been criticized by some for enabling full campaign walkthroughs on YouTube and Twitch from content creators 24 hours before the early access period, meaning before the vast majority of players can get their hands on the game.
If you care this much about that, maybe they don't let content creators stream the game ahead of time or offer an early access period for preorders of the expensive editions? Just a thought. Looking forward to the game
