##### **⚔️ Tear down endless waves of Tyranids and Heretics**

Fight against impossible odds in _Space Marine 2_’s Siege Mode, a new PvE experience available for free to all players today. Set on Kadaku, this new 3-player game mode pits you against ever deadlier waves of Tyranid and Thousand Sons, daring you and your squad to hold an imperial fortress for as long as you possibly can.

Earn points with each wave you defeat and spend them at Requisition Terminals to stay in the fight. Ammunition, equipment charges and Medicae Stimms will keep you upright but as the going gets tough, spending your points on reinforcements like Cadian regiments or Dreadnought support will prove invaluable!

Every five waves, you and your squad will be called upon to defend a new area of the fortress, if you’re able to defeat the Carnifexes, Neurothropes and Helbrutes throwing themselves at you, that is.

Extract before it’s too late to earn Requisition Points, Armoury Data and XP, or fulfill your duty to the Emperor, for only in death does duty end.
