Here is how you can play as Chaos in Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2:
- Launch your game and head over to the Eternal Wars tab to start a match.
- Once the lobby starts, you will be placed in either team. If you are a part of the Heretics team, you can gain access to the Chaos faction characters through the Chaos Chapters.
- Here you will need to select any one of the six Chaos Chapters to gain access to its characters.
- You can then customize your character’s colors just like the Loyalist side but with more limitations. This can be done by visiting the Chaos Chapter and editing the armor after selecting your preferred class. Click on the “Heretic Astartes” option to complete your color selection.
- Once you have customized your character, make sure to check your loadout before the match begins.
- Completing these steps successfully will let you enter the arena as a Chaos Marine.
It is important to note that Chaos Marine armors are tied to a specific class so you would need to play a specific role for the team. That said, here is a list of all the Chaos Chapters you can utilize while playing Eternal Wars:
- Alpha Legion: Sniper
- Black Legion: Tactical
- Death Guard: Bulwark
- Night Lords: Assault
- World Eaters: Vanguard
