You can now try one of 2024’s best games for free over on PlayStation, as long as you’re a PlayStation Plus subscriber.
As revealed on Focus Entertainment’s official Twitter account, a free trial for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is now available for all PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers.
They specified that the trial is “two hours” long, and that players will be able to “experience the full game and explore all modes: PvP, PvE, and campaign”.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 received generally pretty good reviews when it dropped back in September, earning it a 86% “Critics Recommend” score over on OpenCritic.

Players were equally happy with the game too, as it’s currently sitting at a “Very Positive” score on Steam with roughly 82% of the 98,000+ reviews being positive.
A lot of reviewers were particularly complimentary of the game’s co-op content, which Eurogamer’s Rick Lane described as “chaotic, class-based, Left 4 Dead style Operations” in their 4/5 review.
Take a look at the game in action below.
Lane also stated that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 “sparks fond memories of the pre-Souls era of third-person action games,” and referred to it as “the KFC party bucket of video games, delightfully messy, almost certainly bad for you, and best shared with friends” in their conclusion.
Although it didn’t make the list of Game of the Year nominees at The Game Awards, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 has been nominated for two other categories; Best Action Game and Best Multiplayer.
Sounds like it might be best to use your two hour trial wisely and see if any of your mates have access to PlayStation Plus Premium before jumping in.
If you’re holding out for it to land up in the PlayStation Plus catalogue (as a lot of people in the comments on Focus Entertainment’s post stated) then I wouldn’t hold your breath. The game is a little bit too recent for that.
Check back here sometime in the second half of 2025 for that news post.
