Focus Entertainment Comments On Space Marine 2 Leak

On Monday, it came to light that a fully playable development build of Space Marine 2 was posted online in an apparent leak. Now, just some 24 hours later, Focus Entertainment has released a statement on the matter.

The studio says it’s saddened by what’s happened, and would hope that players would avoid playing something that should’ve never been made public. What’s more is that the build that was uploaded is nearly a year old and, in no way, reflects the final product that will release on September 9.

“We are deeply touched by the overwhelming support we’ve received from our community following the leak of an old build of our upcoming game, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2,” Focus said.

“Our teams have poured years of hard work, passion, and dedication into creating a game worthy of your hopes and expectations, and it’s disheartening that many of the surprises we worked to keep secret were spoiled. We’re saddened that this build, which will be almost a year old by the time we launch, is how some of our most eager fans will first experience Space Marine 2.

“Our unwavering commitment has been to deliver the best possible game for our players. This was the driving force behind our decision to spend more time on development and ensure we deliver the best experience we can.

We’re asking everyone to avoid this unfinished build and to not spoil the game for those excited to experience it for the first time at launch. Space Marine 2 will release on September 9, and the best way to support our teams’ hard work is to play the game as they’ve always intended.”
