Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is known for its gory third-person action, but what fans might have missed are the numerous small details throughout the game. These details are related to both the original Space Marine game and the Warhammer 40,000 universe as a whole. Some of these might have gone unnoticed in the chaos, but we’ve discovered several hidden gems that Saber Interactive has sprinkled throughout the game.
Note: Some small spoilers are ahead.
Some of these details tie into the bigger universe, while others are just cool small details that add to the game’s depth.
During the opening mission, Titus is armed with a familiar-looking Chainsword. This is the same model of Chainsword he used in the past, and it’s likely the same sword. After the opening mission, you’ll be given the more modern Chainsword, but Titus’ old weapon can be found mounted in his room on the Battle Barge later in the campaign.
In Titus’ quarters, you can also find his Pauldron from Deathwatch on display. These are typically worn on the left shoulder while an Ultramarine is in Deathwatch, and moved to their right arm when they leave to return to their normal chapter. Titus has instead chosen to put his on display in his room and wear a more subtle Pauldron instead. This suggests that Titus has some mixed feelings about his time in Deathwatch.
Discovering these hidden details and Easter eggs adds a new layer of depth to the game, and fans of the Warhammer 40,000 universe will appreciate the attention to detail that Saber Interactive has put into the game.
