Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 surpasses 5 million copies sold

Released over a decade following its first entry, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 launched in September to a wave of success; both critically and commercially. Just 3 months on and the game has already hit its first major milestone of 5 million copies sold.

Making the announcement as part of their November community update, the Space Marine 2 team at Saber Interactive celebrated the milestone, saying:

“5 million Space Marines have joined our ranks to purge Xenos & Chaos! Huge thanks to everyone who's joined the fight. It’s been incredible to see the community grow (and to keep seeing it grow)! Here’s to many more battles ahead.”

The full post can be found HERE and includes details on the game’s upcoming patch 5.0 / the Dark Angels Chapter Pack.

Space Marine 2 managed to sell an impressive 2 million copies in its first 24 hours, however given how front-loaded many game sales are, it having pushed a further 3 million since is impressive indeed.

Hopefully the game only continues to improve with time and as more content gets added.
