  • To summarize

Focus Entertainment has announced a Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 downtime today (September 26). It would seem that the slaughter of Xenos, especially Tyranids, and the forces of Tzeentch have pleased the God Emperor. He has deemed us worthy of receiving the new patch (which hopefully contains new content). However, before the patch goes live, we must give praise to the Machine Spirit.

For this reason, the servers will be taken offline at 5 AM Eastern Time for an unspecified amount of time. The maintenance and implementation of the patch could last a few hours. That said, the servers should come online by 8 AM Eastern Time. This is taking into account that the downtime for most other co-op/multiplayer games (like Darktide) lasts approximately this long as well.

During this period, you can experience disconnects from the server. It is advised that you spend this time praying to the Omnissiah and dedicate yourself to self-reflection like a true Ultramarine. Alternatively, you can play Campaign Missions while being accompanied by Chairon and Gadriel to pass the time. Perhaps collect all Dataslates in Space Marine 2 if you haven't found them already.

Note: Some aspects of this article are speculative.

How long could the Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 downtime last today (September 26)?

As of now, the developers have not provided a timeline for the upcoming downtime. The last downtime for Space Marine 2, which was scheduled for September 20, 2024, lasted an hour. However, with the Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 downtime today (September 26), focusing on maintenance and a new patch, servers could be down for much longer.

For the time being, we can assume that the maintenance will last for at least two to three hours. It would seem that many fellow Ultramarines have failed to defend the Antenna from the Tyranids, which is now resulting in slow maintenance.

When could servers be up for Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2?

As mentioned, without a timeline in place, we should assume a period of two to three hours before the servers come online. This suggests the servers should be back up by 8 AM ET. The developers will provide an update on social media once servers are officially back online.

Yes, based on the post made by the developers, there will be a patch deployed once the Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 downtime today (September 26) ends. However, they have not mentioned what the patch encompasses.

To summarize
