Focus Entertainment and Saber Interactive's Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has been a long time coming - the first game debuted over 10 years ago! The wait is nearly over, thankfully, as the game will fully launch on September 9. Players who preordered the fancy editions of the game are already enjoying its 3-player online co-op and PvP modes, but the rest of us won't have to wait too much longer.
Focus Entertainment and Saber Interactive have revealed a slew of gameplay details for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, the upcoming sequel to the 2011 sci-fi shooter. This includes new information about the 3-player online co-op Operations mode, 6v6 competitive mode, and lots more. In addition to all that juicy info, the freshly revealed gameplay footage looks quite stunning. The wait for Space Marine 2's September release on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC isn't going to be easy!
Humble Bundles regularly bundle a variety of games together on the cheap, though only for a limited time. The latest Humble Bundle, "Fight 4 Your Friends," is of particular interest since it contains nothing but co-op games! Players can get 4 great games for $10 or donate $15 to get the full six games, including Back 4 Blood and Zombie Army 4. Having played 5 out of the 6 bundled games, I can assure you that this is a great value, especially if you can get a friend to grab the bundle for some cooperative multiplayer!
While Fatshark recently released the amazing Warhammer 40,000: Darktide on PC, that game's predecessor, Warhammer: Vermintide 2 still has plenty of life left. Case in point: the free "Trail of Treachery" level that arrived on PC in November has now emerged on Xbox as well. The new level takes place in the snow and is quite cool indeed, but the game's 99.79 GB file size is becoming quite a challenge for the limited storage capacity of the Xbox Series consoles.
It's been back to back weeks for the Monday Night crew here at Co-Optimus, hooked on the pre-release beta for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. If you've played one of the Vermintide games, you know what this is all about, except now we've 38 thousand years in the gritty war torn future.
It's only a few short weeks until the release of Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, but its predecessor, Warhammer: Vermintide 2 is still going strong. Fatshark just gave out the Steam version for free, and now the same version has received a new free level. "Trail of Treachery" is set on a snowy mountain. It's a fun and challenging new level that adds even more to an already great cooperative experience.
Fatshark is almost ready to unleash Warhammer 40,000: Darktide on the game-playing masses on November 30. Most players' hearts will not be able to take that game's brutal first-person cooperative action, so the developer is helping people build up their tolerance by giving them Darktide's spiritual predecessor, Warhammer: Vermintide 2, first. That's right, the Steam version of Vermintide 2 is totally free to keep if you grab it between now and November 7. It might even save your life!
We recently had a blast with Spidersaurs, a colorful run-and-gun shooter from WayForward. That game is a bit clean cut, though, especially when compared to Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef from Rogueside and Games Workshop. Shootas, Blood, & Teef lets up to 4 local or online players team up as gun-toting Orks on a rampage i...
We've been super excited for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, the follow-up to Warhammer: Vermintide 2, ever since the game was announced back in 2020. Fatshark, the Sweden-based developer, has done a fine job of rolling out new information and cinematics trailers since that first announcement. However, gameplay footage has been conspicuously absent until now. At long last, the latest, freshest trailer shows us just what Darktide looks like in action. Spoiler: it looks like a cooperative blast!
