    Big Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Patch 3.0 Adds PC Ultrawide Support, Private PvE Lobbies, and More

    Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has its hotly anticipated September update, which adds some much-needed features to the game.

    Saber Interactive’s third-person action shooter launched to record-breaking success last month, but it lacked a number of crucial features including ultrawide support on PC and private PvE lobbies in Operations Mode.

    With patch 3.0, both of those features are now in the game, alongside a Sparring Arena for the Battlebarge and the option to replace custom presets with predefined ones.

    The new Sparring Arena in the Battle Barge is available while in Operations or Eternal War mode, and is accessible directly from the Launch Bay. Once there, you’ll be given your weapons and grenades as if you were in a PvP match and allowed to spar it out with your Battle-Brothers ahead of your next mission.

    There’s also a sweeping balance pass addressing everything from the difficulty of the super annoying Tzaangors with Shield to the underpowered Power Fist. The useless bots have been given a shot in the arm, too. Check out the patch notes below.

    IGN recently interviewed Saber chief creative officer Tim Willits about the boost he expects the PS5 Pro will give the game, and how the breakout success of Space Marine 2 has “changed everything” for the studio.

    Meanwhile, Warhammer 40,000 superfan Henry Cavill has been playing Space Marine 2 and delivered his verdict, and we also have details on what fans can expect from Space Marine 2’s seasonal post-launch content model. Season 2 runs from October until the end of 2024, and includes a new Operations map, a new enemy, a harder difficulty level, a new weapon, and various other improvements.

    Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 update 3.0 patch notes:

    New features

    • The Hub Sparring Arena, a new special arena on the Battlebarge available in Operations & Eternal War Game mode where players can compete in friendly PvP with the players in their squad.
    • Ultrawide support for PC
    • Private mode for Operation mode that gives players ability to play operation alone with bots or alongside one friend without being matchmaked with random players during the mission.
    • Added What’s New & Message of the Day
    • Added option to reset custom colour presets

    Gameplay and balancing tweaks

    • The marking tool has been updated:
      – Improved responsiveness and comfort of Social Wheel control with a mouse
      – Disabled unnecessary objects that do not require highlighting and worked poorly with it
      – Several minor bug fixes
    • Power Fist: Damage for fully charged attacks has been greatly increased
    • Heavy Plasma: Base ammo increased by 5. Blast damage radious increased. Owerheat per shoot drastically decreased from 50 to 30 for charged shoots and from 20 to 15 for base shooting. Base damage slightly increased by 10%.

    • Aux grenade launcher ammo now can be refilled only with the Ammo Boxes and can not be refilled from the infinite Ammo Cache

    Campaign

    Difficulty:

    • Enemy aggressiveness on Veteran Difficulty in Campaign decreased for better single-player experience.
    • Player’s health on Veteran Difficulty in Campaign is slightly reduced to compensate for AI aggressiveness and armor management updates

    Bots:

    • Various inhibiting restrictions were lifted, allowing bots to be more helpful and effective, while still not beating the game for the player
    • Bots will now help focus-firing zoanthropes when the player attacks them.

    Operations Mode

      – Max number of Rubric Marines with Boltguns on the arena at the same time reduced from 8 to 5

    • Perfect parry has been updated, now restores armour for killing minoris, not only for countering their special attacks
    • Regarding Block and Fencing Weapons, a bug has been fixed in perfect parry window for fencing weapons. Now it has 20 frames window for perfect parry and 10 fames of vulnerability at the end of animation, instead of 30 frames of perfect parry for full animation as it was intended originally.
