Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Receives Praise
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has garnered immense praise from critics and players, who have been impressed by the work of Saber Interactive. It has been revealed that their main goal was to create an action game reminiscent of those played during the Xbox 360 era.
Interview Reveals Intentions Behind the Game
In a recent interview, Dmitriy Grigorenko, the director of Space Marine 2, admitted that he didn’t anticipate how obvious it would be to see that their game was inspired by shooters from the Xbox 360 era, such as Microsoft’s Gears of War. However, that was precisely their intention.
“We aimed to deliver the perfect sequel to Space Marine. The term ‘perfect sequel’ meant recreating the same experience – a game akin to those of the Xbox 360 era, featuring a story campaign, PvP elements, and a Horde mode. We wanted to offer a classic gaming experience,” he explained.
Oliver Hollis-Leick, the creative director, further shared that their mission was to capture the nostalgic essence of that era. He personally cherished memories of playing Gears of War campaigns with a friend. Recently, they played through the Space Marine 2 campaign together and believe they successfully captured that same feeling.
