If you want to know how long it takes to beat Space Marine 2, you could feasibly get through Titus’ latest campaign in a day. The campaign sounds very short at only 7 missions, but each one is quite long, taking an hour or more to get through – the final mission is closer to two hours long! Each mission is also very linear, but there’s still a bit of room for looking around. Coupled with there being four difficulty levels to choose from in Space Marine 2, and lots of hordes and bosses to fight, there are quite a few things that can affect how long it takes to beat the game.
Space Marine 2 campaign length
The time it takes you to beat the Space Marine 2 campaign is going to vary based on your playstyle and your chosen difficulty. Here are some estimations for how long it takes to complete Space Marine 2 depending on how you play:
- Quick: 7-8 hours
- Standard: 8-10 hours
- Thorough: 10-14 hours
If you’re just charging Titus along the critical path as fast as possible, the Space Marine 2 campaign will take you about 8 hours to complete, but upping the difficulty might slow you down a little more.
Obviously, playing like this means you might miss special weapons, useful items, and dataslate audio logs that add a bit of flavor, so exploring each area is advised, as in our Space Marine 2 tips. This’ll take you to a more standard playthrough time between 8 and 10 hours. I completed every mission on Veteran difficulty and found over half the available dataslates with a final time of 10 hours, for example. Although, if you’re even more thorough and replay missions to find all dataslates for that 100% completions, you’ll be looking at roughly 12 hours or more in the campaign.
Of course, this is just the time to beat Space Marine 2’s campaign and does not consider things like levelling up your Astartes warriors in PVP Eternal War matches and teaming up in co-op to play Operations. There’s no real “time to beat” for these activities given that they’re meant to be replayable and you can play as much as you want, so just know that if you complete all campaign missions, Operations, and a few Eternal War matches, you’ve got at least 20 hours of Adeptus Astartes goodness.
