Fans of the Warhammer 40,000 universe have a rich selection of games, with Space Marine 2 standing out as a notable recent success. Following its well-received launch last year, the critically acclaimed sequel is now receiving a new limited release. The Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 Ultima Limited Edition, priced at $100, is currently available for preorder and is set to launch on November 18 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. This special edition includes a substantial collection of DLC along with an exclusive steelbook case.
The premium steelbook case boasts unique artwork, showcasing an Ultramarine statue adorned with white marble and gold on the front, complemented by a sculpted Tyranid foe on the reverse side. This design is exclusive to the Ultima Limited Edition.
The Ultima Limited Edition represents excellent value, bundling Season Pass 1, Season Pass 2, and the `Macragge`s Chosen` DLC. Considering that the Season Pass 1 and 2 bundle alone typically costs $70 on digital storefronts, and the standard game can be found for around $50-$70, this limited edition offers a saving of over $40. Both Season Passes introduce a variety of armor, weapon, and Champion cosmetic items inspired by different Space Marine chapters, usable across both PvP and PvE game modes.
