December Community Update

🙌 Hi everyone,

First of all, we wanted to wish you all a wonderful holiday season. Our teams are taking a well-deserved break during the winter holidays. 😉

First, we want to address the connectivity issues some of you have been experiencing since the 11.0 update. We are actively working on it, and we apologize for not addressing these issues earlier, as we were collecting more information to confirm it was not isolated cases. You may find the Patch notes for Hotfix 11.1 and 11.2 here.

WE WERE GRATEFUL FOR YOU IN 2025

We wanted to kindly and sincerely thank you for 2025. 💙

Throughout the whole year, you’ve been showing immense support towards Space Marine 2 and the dev team. This year has seen the closing of the first year of live ops content, as well as the beginning of the second year, and we cannot wait to show you what’s in store for 2026. 😊

WHAT’S COMING IN 2026?

The next Space Marines Chapters to receive cosmetic DLCs are the Raven Guard and the Carcharodons in Patch 12. Tell us, which one are you most excited to see?

Patch 12 will come with a new class: The Techmarine with the Omnissiah Axe, a new Operation, new Battlefield Conditions for Stratagems, new Heroic Weapons, technical improvements, as usual, and more! 🤫 The Battlebarge Expansion will unfortunately have to be delayed to a later Patch. We prefer releasing a version we're satisfied with rather than just follow a schedule at all costs.

Alongside patch 12 comes new DLC content: a pack of heads & voices based on the Blood Angels, Black Templars and Space Wolves chapters. It will include over 450 voicelines – localized in all existing languages – per Chapter, including unique lines based on the Chapter (for example, the Space Wolf will shout “ For the Allfather ” instead of the usual “ For the Emperor ”) and your Space Marine will shout these new lines.

Here’s how they look:

Please note that this DLC is not included in the Season Pass 2

Since it’s the end of the year and you all deserve a gift, you shall be given a little hint on the upcoming Operation, “Disruption”:

• It takes place on Avarax.

• Your squad will deploy to purge Xenos presence and help besieged Cadians.

• An iconic character from the Campaign will come back 🤫

Stay tuned in January for more info regarding the 12.0 update!

Here are some more hints on what to expect in 2026, from Game Director Dmitry Grigorenko:

• With the announcement of chapter specific heads and voicelines you can strike out “Something we said we are going to do, but nobody noticed” from the list of upcoming customization additions we’ve mentioned in September. We’re really happy to deliver what you have been asking for months now. Nevertheless, the other 2 hints still remain: 🤫

• We’ve adjusted our plans and decided to throw in a bit more free stuff than what the Y2 roadmap originally listed.

• The progression update item listed in the roadmap is going to be a whole new feature, we will talk about it closer to its release. On top of that we are going to expand the Datavault’s current Ordeal system next year.

• We are working on a lot of QoL
