Focus Entertainment has announced scheduled downtime for Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 today (September 26). The relentless battle against Xenos, particularly Tyranids and the forces of Tzeentch, seems to have pleased the God Emperor. As a result, we are deemed worthy of receiving the new patch, which we hope includes exciting new content. However, first, we must pay our respects to the Machine Spirit.
The servers will be offline starting at 5 AM Eastern Time for an undetermined period. Maintenance and implementation of the patch may take a few hours, but the servers are expected to be back online by 8 AM Eastern Time. This downtime aligns with the typical hours observed in other co-op/multiplayer games (like Darktide).
During this maintenance window, players may experience server disconnections. It’s advised to take this time to pray to the Omnissiah and engage in contemplative reflection, emulating a true Ultramarine. Alternatively, you may choose to tackle Campaign Missions with allies Chairon and Gadriel to help pass the time. If you haven’t collected all Dataslates in Space Marine 2, now might be the perfect moment to do so.
Once the Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 downtime concludes today (September 26), we can anticipate new content set to amplify the game experience and further fuel excitement. Players who have encountered server issues, such as Error Code 1, Error Code 4, or those stuck on the joining screen, should check after the maintenance is complete for any resolutions or improvements.
How long could the Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 downtime last today (September 26)?
Currently, the developers have not provided a specific timeline for the downtime. The prior maintenance for Space Marine 2, which took place on September 20, 2024, lasted about an hour. However, due to the maintenance and new patch implementation scheduled for today (September 26), the servers may be offline for a longer duration.
As it stands, we can estimate that the maintenance will likely last between two to three hours. It appears that many fellow Ultramarines struggled to defend the Antenna from the Tyranids, which may be contributing to the extended maintenance.
When could servers be up for Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2?
As previously mentioned, without an established timeline, we should estimate a downtime of about two to three hours before the servers are brought back online. This implies that the servers should potentially be operational again by 8 AM ET. The developers will keep players informed via social media once the servers are back up.
Will there be a patch when the Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 downtime ends?
Yes, according to the developers’ announcement, a patch will be implemented once the Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 downtime concludes today (September 26). However, specific details regarding the contents of the patch have yet to be released.
Referring to the Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 DLC roadmap, players can anticipate features such as ultrawide support, private PvE lobbies, and a Battle Barge sparring area. Additionally, owners of the Ultra and/or Collector’s editions of Space Marine 2 will gain access to the Ultramarines Cosmetic Pack.
To summarize
Servers will be taken offline for the Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 downtime today (September 26), starting maintenance at 5 AM Eastern Time. The downtime may last for up to three hours while developers address server-related issues and prepare for the upcoming patch, which will go live upon the servers’ return.
As of now, no definitive timeline has been announced regarding the duration of the maintenance. Developers will provide updates once the procedures are completed.
