Modded sessions use private lobbies, display a watermark, and keep progression separate from the official game.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 now has an official Steam Workshop, giving players a dedicated place to access and create mods. The announcement is available in the game’s Steam news post.

Mods come with a few firm limits. Players using them will be removed from public matchmaking and placed in a private lobby instead. Friends can join through a direct invitation or a session code, while a watermark appears in the top-right corner during modded play.

Progression from these sessions will also remain separate from progression in the official game. That keeps modded play isolated from standard online progression and matchmaking.

What Mod Creators Need to Know

Anyone planning to build a mod must follow the required conditions and restrictions. The announcement points creators to the modding legal notice and says a complete guide is available after those guidelines have been reviewed.

The Workshop gives Space Marine 2 players a new way to experiment, but the private-lobby requirement means mods will remain separate from public sessions. That distinction should be clear before starting a modded game.
