Focus Entertainment and developer Saber Interactive have released the “Techmarine” update for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II.
Take Control of the Battlefield With the New Techmarine Class
The Techmarine finally joins the ranks of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II! Available now for all player-versus-environment and player-versus-player modes (Operations, Stratagems, Siege and Eternal War), the Techmarine is an expert in crowd control and area defense thanks to its unique loadout and powerful automated weapons bolted directly to its armor. In player-versus-player modes, this new class will take on the colors of the Red Corsair Warpsmith.
Techmarines come equipped with a brand-new, exclusive weapon, the Omnissian Axe, letting them make good use of their sweeping melee attacks to cut down Tyranids and Thousand Sons alike. As for all available classes, new Techmarine players will be able to choose from 25 available perks to customize their playstyles and maximize damage in the name of the Emperor.
The Raven Guard Welcomes Its Champion, and the Carcharodons Find the Spotlight
Today’s update is accompanied by the usual set of Season Pass 2 cosmetics! The Raven Guard returns with a “Champion Pack” adding a new full-body armor skin for the Assault class and a unique Bolt Pistol skin inspired by their iconography. The Carcharodons receive their very first armor pieces with two pauldrons, two helmets and an exclusive chestplate celebrating the mysterious yet beloved prowlers of the outer dark.
Hear, Hear! “Chapter Voice Pack 1” is Here!
Patch 12 also marks the release of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II‘s “Chapter Voice Pack 1,” adding over 1,300 voiced lines re-recorded in the unique styles of the Blood Angels, Space Wolves and Black Templars chapters. It comes with three unique Space Marine faces to be equipped and swapped onto any of the game’s classes, as faces are no longer class-locked and can now be applied to all available characters!
