Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2’s “Trygon Update” brings fresh Tyranid PvE action and more

Still rolling is Focus Entertainment and Saber Interactive’s Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, with the just launched Trygon Update.

Back to Avarax

The chunky Trygon Update is here for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, and it’s spotlighted by a new PvE adventure that hosts the title beast. A massive Tyranid, the Trygon has been marked for death by the Imperium, and a squad of Space Marines is being sent to Avarax to deal with it. As we hinted at though, it’s not all that this new delivery is bringing fans of the game.

Also included is a new weapon called the Inferno Pistol, a host of quality of life updates, and both the Space Wolves Chapter Pack and the Imperial Fists Champion Pack. Get a look at most of the above in the freshly dropped trailer below.

Escape the Trygon’s bloodcurdling claws in the free new “Exfiltration” mission

Drop back to windswept Avarax for a new assignment and take on the mighty Trygon in Space Marine 2’s ninth PvE Operation. This new, terrifying, towering boss specializes in guerrilla tactics and is renowned for its ability to burrow below defense lines and harass its prey no matter how safe they think they are. Free for all players, this new mission is the perfect occasion to try out the fiery new secondary weapon: the Inferno Pistol.

These come in addition to a range of QoL updates and improvements available to all players, like the introduction of Prestige Ranks and Prestige Rewards; a rework of many weapon perks; the ability to change the color of cloth, tabards and hoods across all classes; as well as much-requested custom PvP lobbies, letting you match in groups of up to 12 players for fully customizable Eternal War games.

The Space Wolves and Imperial Fists join the fray with new DLCs

On top of its free content, the “Trygon” update also brings two new DLCs for Season Pass owners. First is the Space Wolves Chapter Pack, which adds a new Champion skin for the Vanguard, three weapon skins (Chainsword, Bolt Carbine and Thunder Hammer) and more than 50 unique cosmetics and colors to honor the Chapter’s 12 Great Companies.

It’s complemented by the Imperial Fists Champion Pack, which delivers its own Champion skin for the Tactical class and a unique Plasma Incinerator skin celebrating the Sons of Dorn.
