Welcome to the Datavault Update!

Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment are buzzing with excitement over the latest content drop for the epic Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2. The new update, dubbed “Datavault,” is packed with fresh, free content and some much-anticipated quality-of-life improvements that every player will appreciate. Plus, if you’ve got a Season Pass, you’re in for a treat with even more customization options for your characters. So, whether you’re battling it out on Playstation 5, XBOX Series X|S, or PC, there’s something here for everyone. Ready to dive into what the “Datavault” has in store? Let’s break it down!

New Challenges Await

The heart of the update lies in the newly introduced Datavault, a unique chamber aboard the Battle-Barge where Tech-Priests gather Intel on the Imperium’s many foes. Accessible directly from the Armory, this feature allows players to complete Ordeals, earning Research Data that can be traded for Requisition Points and a slew of exciting new cosmetics. Think flashy new pauldron markings, weapon skins (like the Thunder Hammer and Auto Bolt Rifle), and even fresh armor pieces. Who doesn’t want to strut their stuff in style while taking down enemies?

Fresh Maps and Fierce Enemies

But the fun doesn’t stop there! Fans of the PvP scene will be thrilled to know that the Eternal War mode is getting its first new map since launch. Say hello to the Necron-themed “Tomb” map, which promises to shake things up. And for those diving into Operations mode, keep your wits about you—there’s a new Tyranid Biovore on the loose! This Majoris enemy can dish out damage from a distance and up close, adding a new layer of challenge to your gameplay. Are you ready to face this terrifying foe?

Season Pass Goodies

For those who have invested in the Season Pass, you’re about to level up your game even more. Today, you can snag the Raven Guard Cosmetic Pack and the Salamanders Champion Pack. The Raven Guard pack features the iconic Mark VI “Corvus” helmet and over 40 cosmetics that pay homage to the Raven Guard Successor Chapters. Meanwhile, the Salamanders pack brings a new Champion skin for the Sniper class and an exclusive Bolt Sniper Rifle skin. Talk about a style upgrade!

Introducing “Absolute” Difficulty

As if that weren’t enough, the “Datavault” update also introduces a brand-new difficulty setting: “Absolute.” This sixth and final tier promises to challenge even the most seasoned players. But it’s not all about the challenge; significant quality-of-life improvements are rolling out for both PC and console users. You can now opt in or out of crossplay in PvP matches, adjust your Field of View (FOV) on PC, and enjoy various tweaks to class perks. Plus, there’s a new “currency exchange” feature that lets you trade your Armoury Data for rarer tiers or Requisition Points. How cool is that?

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is already making waves, and with the “Datavault” update, it’s only getting better.
