Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 Achieves Remarkable Sales Success

Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 is making headlines as the fastest-selling game ever worked on by Saber Interactive's CEO, Tim Willits. This highly anticipated sequel to the 2011 original has captivated players with its dynamic blend of third-person shooting and hack-and-slash combat. Whether tackling the game solo or teaming up in multiplayer modes, players are immersing themselves in its intense and gritty universe.

Launched on PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S, Space Marine 2 has quickly become one of September's standout releases. The game's dark and visceral world invites players to embark on thrilling missions with friends, while also offering extensive customization options for classes and equipment.

Tim Willits took to Twitter to highlight the game's impressive performance, revealing that Space Marine 2 is "the fastest-selling game we’ve ever worked on." The game has outpaced major franchises like Quake, Doom, and Rage in sales, a testament to its remarkable success. Willits also noted that Todd Hollenshead, the former CEO of id Software and a current collaborator at Saber, shares this sentiment. If these sales figures hold true, it marks a significant achievement for the Florida-based studio.
