It's important to note that while *Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2* is available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, the public test server is exclusively accessible on PC. PC players can easily access the public test server through their Steam settings, avoiding any complex processes.
To join, PC players should navigate their Steam library to find *Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2*. The public test server will appear directly below the main game as a separate entity, but only if you have already purchased *Space Marine 2* on Steam. Once located, download and install the test server, which operates on its own standalone files, distinct from the main game.
What Is Included with the Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 Public Test Server
The *Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2* public test server offers new content for both PvE and PvP modes, including new weapons and customization options. The bulk of the updates are focused on PvE, featuring a new map, relaxed class restrictions on weapons, and modifications to online gameplay features. Keep in mind that the content, especially the PvE additions, is still under development and subject to significant changes before an official release.
For online gameplay, the test server includes enhanced matchmaking for both PvE and PvP modes, particularly aimed at improving team balancing. The PvE system strives to prevent multiple players from selecting the same class on the same team, while also incorporating a prestige leveling system. On the PvP side, the lobby offers more extensive customization options to enrich the online multiplayer experience.
Players with mods installed for *Space Marine 2* should be aware that these mods won't function within the public test server. Additionally, while you can create and customize content using the available assets on the test server, this content won't carry over to the main game. The test server operates as a separate build, and there's no confirmation yet on whether progression or content from the test server will transfer to the main game, though it's generally not expected.
