Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 Free Update Looks Suspiciously Similar to Helldivers 2

Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 is coming up with a free update that seems to have a lot to offer to its players. There are a lot of new things being added to the game, including a harder difficulty mode to raise the stakes for veteran players.

However, its recent update looks suspiciously similar to Helldivers 2. The main reason for comparison is concerning the looks and feel of the recent free update, which gives similar vibes to Helldivers 2.

The recent free update is all set to introduce a wealth of new content and improvements. A new PvE operation on Kandaku, where players will face off against the towering Hierophant Bio-Titan, is being included in the free update, providing a fresh challenge.

A new lethal mode is also being introduced through the update, which will raise the stakes for veteran players. Alongside these 2, an all-new Neo-Volkite pistol is being added, which will be a significantly powerful weapon upgrade. Last but not least, Dark Angels-themed cosmetics, including armor and weapon skins for fans of customization, are also coming with the free update

These features are quite similar to those of Helldivers 2, which raises suspicions about it being too similar to Space Marine 2. The similarity between the two games stems from both games sharing similar key elements of the third-person shooter genre, set in a dark, futuristic, military sci-fi universe.

Both the games encourage cooperative gameplay and large-scale combat against aliens and monstrous foes. However, given the similarities between the two, both games belong to completely different universes with no overlap in the lore.

Space Marine 2’s recent free update teaser gives a similar vibe to that of Helldiver’s 2. The recent teaser is visually striking and reveals the new features coming to the game later this month.

Apart from the look and feel, there is nothing between the two games that can be called similar since both of the games belong to completely different universes. The naked eye would often miss the similarity between the two. The more you dig deeper, the more layers will begin to unfold.

The free update comes as a blessing in disguise for the fans of the game since it is all to expand the content and introduce many improvements to the game. This will not be the only update that Space Marine 2 will be getting. It is certain that Saber Interactive has planned multiple updates ready to roll out in the following months.
