Good news for players! Saber Interactive has confirmed that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 will launch DRM-free. This means no digital rights management software will hinder your gameplay experience. Let's delve into the details.
Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2: A DRM-Free Experience
No Microtransactions, Just Cosmetic Extras
Saber Interactive's recent FAQ clarifies many player concerns ahead of the September 9th release. The confirmation of no DRM, including Denuvo, is a significant win for many gamers who often cite performance issues associated with such software. Remember past controversies like Capcom's Enigma DRM in Monster Hunter Rise, impacting Steam Deck compatibility and modding capabilities? This time, players can expect a smoother experience.
While the game will be DRM-free, Saber Interactive will utilize Easy Anti-Cheat on the PC version. While Easy Anti-Cheat has faced scrutiny in the past (notably during the ALGS 2024 Apex Legends incident), its inclusion aims to maintain fair online play.
The absence of official mod support might disappoint some, but the game boasts other compelling features to compensate. Expect a PvP arena, horde mode, and a comprehensive photo mode. Furthermore, Saber Interactive emphasizes that all core gameplay content will be unlocked for all players, with microtransactions and DLC limited to purely cosmetic items.
