In 2019 I took a trip from New York City to Nottingham to meet the fine folks at Games Workshop to pitch a new game idea. Fresh off of our success on World War Z and Halo: The Master Chief Collection, my good friend John Bert from Focus had come up with the insane notion that Saber use its new swarm tech to develop a sequel to Relic’s classic underrated shooter Space Marine.
All I knew about Warhammer was that my team was obsessed with it and that the universe and lore would take a lifetime to learn. I had about a week to nail the pitch. I crammed for that meeting harder than I did for the bar exam, and thanks to YouTube (Luetin09) and the presence of our brilliant writer/designer Oliver Hollis-Leick, we nailed the pitch. We celebrated that evening by having Oli watch me drink at the oldest pub in England.
Today, we finally release Space Marine 2. In the interim, Saber grew from 500 to 3,500 developers, acquired a bunch of studios, was bought by Embracer and ultimately bought ourselves back. It has been quite the journey to get here and while we await nervously for the servers to go live. We have a good feeling about this game. If you get the chance over the next few months, please find some time to pick up a chainsword and kill a few thousand Tyranids… and when you do, think about what it took us to get here.
