Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2: A DRM-Free Experience
Saber Interactive has officially confirmed that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 will launch without any DRM (Digital Rights Management) software, including Denuvo. This announcement addresses player concerns regarding performance impacts often associated with DRM. The decision to forgo DRM is a welcome one for many gamers.
No Microtransactions (Except Cosmetics)
In a recent FAQ, Saber Interactive also clarified that the game will be free of microtransactions affecting core gameplay. Any in-game purchases will be limited to purely cosmetic items. This commitment to a fair and balanced gameplay experience further enhances the appeal of the upcoming title.
Easy Anti-Cheat Implementation
While eschewing DRM, the developers have confirmed the use of Easy Anti-Cheat software on the PC version to combat cheating. While Easy Anti-Cheat has faced scrutiny in the past, its inclusion aims to maintain a fair competitive environment.
No Official Mod Support (Yet)
Although the game will not launch with official mod support, players can still anticipate a robust experience with features including a PvP arena, horde mode, and a comprehensive photo mode. These features, along with the absence of DRM and pay-to-win mechanics, promise an engaging and enjoyable gaming experience. The lack of mod support may be a disappointment to some, but the focus on a polished, fair base game is evident.
