Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 has only been out for a couple of months, but there's already a sequel on the horizon, although not in the way you might immediately assume. Games Workshop has confirmed that Warhammer 40K's appearance in Amazon's upcoming Secret Level series will take the form of an animated sequel to Space Marine 2.
Secret Level, if you don't know, is a new 15-episode animated anthology series from the creators of Netflix's Love, Death & Robots, and each episode features “original stories set in the worlds of some of the most beloved video games.” Those games include Armored Core, Concord, Crossfire, Dungeons & Dragons, Exodus, Honor of Kings, Mega Man, New World: Aeternum, Pac-Man, Sifu, Spelunky, The Outer Worlds, Unreal Tournament, a variety of PlayStation Studios games , and, of course, Warhammer 40K.
As for the details, Games Workshop has confirmed (as some fans had already speculated after the release of the Secret Level trailer) that the episode is indeed a sequel to this year's acclaimed Warhammer 40K shooter, Space Marine 2, and follows the conclusion of the game “like a… secret level”. Plus, Clive Standen is on board, once again voicing Space Marine protagonist Captain Demetrian Titus.
And that's all we know so far. However, Games Workshop notes that a new trailer for the Secret Level series, presumably showing a little more of the action from the Space Marine 2 sequel, is on the way after its recent reveal at New York Comic Con, and that fans “won't have to.” wait too long to see it.” As for the series itself, it will air on Prime Video starting December 10.
