Your life may be honor, and your craft may be death, but do you know what Space Marine 2 is coming out? It’s soon!

Last night The Game AdvertisementsAwards told us all a bunch of things we already know. Baldur’s Gate 3 is game of the year. Indie Games are a vibe, not an actual category, and just because a studio has millions doesn’t mean they can’t make an indie darling (sarcasm). And of course, a whole lot of games with cool-looking trailers are coming out sometime between very soon and Blizzard-Activision Soon (never).

Space Marine 2 is one such game. And last night, during Geoff Keighley’s show about video games that made Gonzo the Great talk about Tears of the Kingdom, Space Marine 2, (official title Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2), revealed its release date.

And since it’s slated for a September 9th, 2024 release, it’s coming much sooner than many of the other games on display.

Space Marine 2 Release Date Reveal Trailer – September 9th Can’t Come Soon Enough

In the release trailer, we don’t get many new details. We just get to see the newly Primaris’d, now-Lieutenant Titus pledging eternal service to the Emperor (or at least the Ultramarines), while admitting that his craft is death. And it’s true. Even if this trailer is sparse on details, don’t forget that extended gameplay trailer from a few months ago:

Where we basically see that Lieutenant Titus is basically a The Craftsman of killing Tyranids. He finds all sorts of inventive ways to show that he shall know no fear on the battlefield.

But the latest Space Marine 2 trailer does give us one vital piece of info, the Space Marine 2 release date, September 9th, 2024. That day happens to be a Monday, so, clearly Games Workshop and Focus want you to take time off from work to play the game. We recommend working on your fake cough now, so you’ll be a dab hand at it by the time Space Marine 2’s release date finally arrives.

Alongside the release date trailer, a press release promised all the usual action and adventure you might expect from a 40K game press release:

Crush the Tyranid Swarms. Defend Humanity!

Prepare for the most satisfying and intense battle of 2024, continuing the story of legendary Space Marine Lieutenant Titus, voiced by Vikings and Taken star Clive Standen. Drive back the everlasting night solo or in up-to-three-player co-op in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2’s epic new campaign. Unleash the Ultramarines’ deadly arsenal and embody the unwavering brutality of the Emperor’s greatest warriors to protect Humanity from the untold horrors of the galaxy, including the dark forces of Chaos!

And get ready to finish the fight. You know, the one that the Tyranids started. Not a different fight which needed finishing.
