When the world needed him most, he returned.

Sequel to the classic many know and love, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II is an upcoming game currently in development and it will star our friend Titus as a demoted Primaris Lieutenant against a bunch of Tyranids.

The trailer is out, and looks absolutely dope.

Details are scant at the moment, except the fact that they are hiring Clive Standen as Rollo from Vikings to replace Mark Strong. While Standen did a great performance in the show, it’s unlikely his voice acting chops will beat Mr. Strong. The short version is this.

However it is not made by Relic, which can be seen as a mixed blessing or curse, on one hand their last effort is widely regarded as a complete shitfest. On the other hand; every game company has pushed a stinker from time to time, that doesn't mean they can't learn from it (let alone the fact Space Marine is in a completely different genre than DoW), but more importantly, it means the design and narrative team that crafted the tone and characters that the original recieved so much praise for won't be involved with the sequel at all, this also means the storyline Relic had planned for their trilogy is probably not going to be used. Instead, this game will be made by Saber Interactive (known for most notably World War Z: Aftermath) and published by Focus Entertainment, who are pretty much GW's go-to publisher for their stuff. (Which may also help explain with why Titus is now a Primaris)

Space Marine II continues the fine tradition of 40k vidya with introductory cinematics where every moment could be a painting.
