Nope, not yet. He does know Guilliman is alive, but that's pretty much it unless a brand new book came out I'm unaware of.
Not officially. The Lion's novel where he returns ends with him finding out that Roboute is still alive.
Nah son it was on the PS3? and 360 like same time as the Steam release...
Unless you meant a re-release in which case yes it's fucking modern day travesty i can't play the first game anymore. Just before it died completely you had king of the Hill Dreadnaught matches and they were absolute madness. That bridge level had some of the best pvp multiplayer gunfights i've ever had in a tps. The most intense back and forths. I want it again!
Lol That was a total miss-type, stupid phone, I meant re-release on modern consoles instead of being stuck on PS3/360.
The campaign is up to 3 player co-op. No word on competitive MP
Loved the first game, hoping this one is just as fun.
I'm not a big Warhammer 40k fan, in that I don't know the lore very well, but I like a lot of the games. Dawn of War was excellent back in the day, and I've been playing Dreadnought and Boltgun on my PS5. I definitely recommend Boltgun for fans of retro shooters.

Still my most anticipated game even in this crazy ass year.
I will play this even if my Steam Deck explodes in my face trying to render it at 10fps.

He was taken by the inquisition at the end of the first game.
He was demoted and got the primaris upgrade.
I highly recommend checking out Luetin09 on YouTube for lore etc , his videos are amazing , been watching them the last few years and have learnt so much about the history of 40K.
Very much looking forward to this game , 1st one still holds up(on the deck anyway)
I will add Arbitor Ian to that YouTuber list. Love his videos and he's not shy calling out the shitty side of the 40k fanbase.
Space Marine 2 looks fucking sick. Would be absolutely excited for it to release in 2023 but I fully expect a delay.
But what a time for Warhammer fans:
- Realms of Ruin in November
- Darktide in October for Xbox
- Space Marine 2 in 2023
I'll play all of them Day 1. Absolutely fantastic.

The Lion has mellowed a lot since he woke up. He is almost completely unlike himself, something he is well aware of, and his goals and motivations are different from what they used to be. While he has only had one novel for us to get to know him in, it sounds like he's going to be way more diplomatic in how he approaches other people in the future, Guilliman included. Before that novel, everyone expected rivalry between the two, but it doesn't seem like that is going to happen. They'll probably just hug it out.
To be honest, even the Lion in full asshole mode might've taken pity on Roboute upon seeing the rotting carcass he's struggling to hold together against impossible odds.
The game looks amazing. Although I am a bit disappointed it doesn't look like there any Orcs in this one. It just won't be the same without anything shouting Space Marine in an accent that sounds like they said Spice Marine. Me and my buddies still joke about how much we loved the Spice Marine game back in the day.
He got demoted when he was re-instated after his little sojourn with the Inquisition.
Make the Emperor a huge rotten husk of a skeleton and then this would be accurate.This is a pretty decent size comparison:
THIS IS A REPRESENTATION OF HOW HE EXISTS IN THE IMMATERIUM WHEN HE APPEARS TO HIS MOST HOLY DISCIPLIES, YOU HERETIC!
Hell I wanted a 40K movie/show to focus far more on the day to day average people from Guardsmen to the hive dwellers and maybe some people like rogue traders. Space Marines and similar are basically fleeting mentions and treated like a myth or legend only for them to show up near the end in some dire time. Would love them to be presented as they're viewed by the regular person as something almost hard to believe and so super human they do seem like Angels. A couple of the short stories play this aspect up and I love it.
Still not sure how a show like this can work at all, with every being in this universe being bad. It works for books but TV shows? They probably need heroes and/or an antagonist... and you know, this does not exist in this universe, everyone sucks. the most interesting stories stem from Inquisitors doing "detective work" and starting to to questioniong the Imperium - but I doubt that's what this show will be.
