It’s ironic that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine was a success when it launched years ago, only to fall into limbo after THQ’s collapse. Fast forward to 2024, and the long-awaited sequel, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, has finally arrived—earning widespread acclaim. Now, Saber Interactive has announced the next entry in the series: Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 3.
For fans of the first two games, this is exciting news. However, beyond the initial reveal, details remain scarce. More information about Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 3 will be shared at a later date, and with summer gaming events just a few months away, we’ll likely learn more soon.
“We have been honored by the incredible response from fans following the launch of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2. We will continue to support the game with exciting content and regular updates in the coming years. Today we are thrilled to announce that the adventure will continue with Space Marine 3. Players can look forward to an immersive campaign, a multiplayer mode, and innovations that will redefine the standards of third-person action games. Developed in close collaboration with Games Workshop, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 3 will take the genre to new heights by introducing large-scale battles that are even more spectacular,” said John Bert, Deputy CEO of Focus Entertainment Publishing, a subsidiary of the PULLUP Entertainment Group.
“Space Marine 2 has proven to be a transformative game for Saber. It is the culmination of everything we have learned about game development in our 25 years in the business. We are now starting to develop Space Marine 3, a game that carries with it tremendous expectations from our rapidly expanding fanbase. While we will continue to support and grow the Space Marine 2 universe over the coming years, we will take all our learnings and apply them to an even bigger and more spectacular game for the third installment. We view this as an opportunity to create a true love letter to the Warhammer 40.000 universe,” said Matthew Karch, CEO of Saber Interactive.
