Sony is gearing up to offer an exciting experience for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers in December 2024. A game trial for the popular sci-fi action-adventure game, Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2, is arriving on the platform, letting fans dive into this gripping grimdark shooter at no cost for a limited time.
Space Marine 2, developed by Saber Interactive, has been quite the success since its release in September 2024, garnering praise from critics and players alike. By October, the player base had already surpassed 4.5 million. Despite a few controversies over recent updates, the developers responded swiftly to community feedback and have announced an array of free content set to drop in December 2024.
Amidst these updates, PlayStation Blog revealed some exciting news for PS5 owners: starting December 3, 2024, there will be a complimentary Space Marine 2 trial available on PS Plus Premium. This is particularly notable as game trials for such high-profile titles are not frequently added to the service; the last one being Stellar Blade in June 2024.
In addition to this trial, which traditionally lasts around two hours for major titles, Sony is marking PlayStation’s 30th anniversary with more treats. PS Plus Premium will also welcome three classic PS2 games: Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy, Sly 2: Band of Thieves, and Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves. Meanwhile, those subscribed to PS Plus Essential can look forward to enjoying the acclaimed Game of the Year 2021, It Takes Two, along with the Pokémon-inspired MMO, Temtem, and the strategic title, Aliens: Dark Descent.
Space Marine 2 promises players an intense journey as a Space Marine, embodying the role of Titus to fend off legions of tyrannid swarms in dazzling campaigns. Whether you prefer to go it solo or team up with friends in three-player co-op, the game delivers a blood-pumping, gory third-person action experience. Not forgetting the thrilling PvP matches, where you can battle it out 6v6 to bring honor to your faction. Released on September 9, 2024, and published by Focus Entertainment, it’s a must-experience for fans of visceral, tactical gameplay. This makes the upcoming PS Plus Premium trial an excellent opportunity for newcomers and long-time fans to dive in and experience the action.
