After today’s Warhammer Skulls Showcase and its deluge of announcements, it might be hard to remember a time when great Warhammer games<\/a> weren’t falling down upon us like so much steel rain<\/a>. But I remember! In fact, I recall a time when things were so dire that the original Space Marine\u2014a decent enough character action game with a plot so predictable you might confuse it for a sundial\u2014felt like the second coming of the God Emperor himself.<\/p>\n

Well, get ready to experience a second <\/em>second coming of the God Emperor himself: it was announced at the Skulls event that Space Marine will be getting its very own gentle remaster treatment alongside the venerable Dawn of War<\/a>. The new Space Marine Master Crafted edition releases June 10, only a couple weeks away.<\/p>\n

The new version will brush up those decidedly 2011-looking textures and character models, offer newly remastered audio, and support 4K resolution. The trailer also teases improved UI and a modernised control scheme, but the brief snippet they showed doesn’t give much to go on. I think that’s a new radial weapon select wheel?<\/p>\n
