Releasing fully on September 9, Space Marine 2 has had a fair amount of hype behind it since its announcement. Now, fans are diving in to enjoy Titus’s story and participate in the various multiplayer missions and brutal 6v6 PvP action.

Whether you’re looking to dive into the campaign solo, with friends, or enjoy the Operations and PvP modes, it’s important to know the game’s player count. After all, there’s nothing more disappointing than logging on with no other teams to play with. So, here’s all you need to know.

According to SteamDB, the Space Marine 2 player count hit a peak of 225,690 players in the first 24 hours after its full release. As of writing, the game is hovering around 160,000 concurrent players.

Naturally, this is purely based off of Steam, whereas the game is also available on PlayStation and Xbox, so these numbers are likely to be much higher than highlighted on the site.

In fact, on September 10, Focus Entertainment announced on their X account that “Two Million Space Marines have joined the fight to protect the Imperium,” thanking to community for the impressive number of players that dived in upon the release.

Amazingly, the first 24 hour player count marked the highest concurrent player peak for any Warhammer 40,000 game, after just four days of early access, proving just how popular the release is for both fans of the franchise and otherwise.
