Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has been out for over a week now, and players have been diving into the campaign, co-op Operations mode, and PvP mode, Eternal War. But the big question on everyone’s mind is – what enemy faction will we face in Space Marine 3?
Based on hints in Space Marine 2, it looks like the Necrons will be the next big threat. Throughout the game, there are subtle clues pointing towards the Necrons making an appearance in the next installment. From ancient wall markings to audio logs revealing Necron constructs killing Techpriests, the stage is set for a showdown with the deathless robotic xenos.
The campaign in Space Marine 2 heavily involves the Necrons, with the Techpriest attempting to use a Necron artifact to close off the warp and combat the forces of Chaos. As players delve deeper into Necron Tomb Worlds and encounter Necron technology, the presence of these ancient enemies becomes more apparent.
If the Necrons do indeed make an appearance in Space Marine 3, players can expect a formidable foe. Waking up from a 60 million year slumber, the Necrons are sure to be displeased with the interference of the Imperium and will stop at nothing to assert their dominance.
As for Titus, the hero of Space Marine 2, he will likely be called upon once again to face this new threat. With the support of his fellow Space Marines and the ever-watchful eye of Chaplain Leandros, Titus will need to muster all his strength and courage to combat the Necrons and Chaos forces.
While we eagerly await the release of Space Marine 3 or a story expansion to continue the saga, Space Marine 2 has already garnered a huge following. With over two million players and sales surpassing any Doom game, it has become the most-played Warhammer 40,000 game on Steam. As players anticipate upcoming DLC and new features like class matching for co-op, the excitement for the future of the series continues to grow.
For fans of Warhammer 40,000, the prospect of facing off against the Necrons in Space Marine 3 is both thrilling and daunting. With the success of Space Marine 2 paving the way for more epic battles and adventures, the galaxy of the 41st millennium is sure to see even more intense conflicts in the games to come.
