As an experienced gamer with decades of gaming under my belt, I have seen the evolution of saving games from floppy disks to cloud-based auto-saves. The latest addition to my collection is Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, and while it’s a thrilling ride through the galaxy, the lack of manual save option left me feeling like a Space Marine stranded on a forgotten planet without a beacon to guide me home.
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is finally here, and it is time to win the war for the Emperor!
The game’s campaign might not be the longest you’ve experienced (typically lasting around 10-12 hours), but having the option to save your progress adds a convenient touch, as it’s unlikely you’ll complete it all in one go.
So, this guide will let you know how to save the game in Space Marine 2.
Can You Manual Save In Space Marine 2?
Although manually saving your progress might seem the easiest method to pause and resume later, there’s some unfortunate news to share.
There is no way to manually save in Space Marine 2.
Frustrating, yes. Sadly, it is also becoming an industry standard these days in many other games.
Nevertheless, Space Marine 2 boasts cross-platform saving, a highly beneficial feature even without the inclusion of a manual save option.
Saber has posted a couple of notes about saving offline and cross-saving on their official site:
Q: Will my progression be saved when playing offline?
Rest easy, when playing Campaign Mode, your advancement will automatically save on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S even if you play offline. However, Operations Mode (PvE) requires an internet connection to save your progress. Any progress made offline won’t carry over to the next session, so remember to stay connected to preserve all acquired perks, skins, and other rewards.
Q: Does cross-platform save work well?
Absolutely, cross-platform saving works seamlessly using the Prism Ray Online Services (PROS).
How Do You Save The Game In Space Marine 2?
Have an opinion on this article? We’d love to hear it!
In Space Marine 2, manual saving isn’t available, but the game does save automatically at certain checkpoints. However, the auto-save can be unpredictable, making it hard to determine when it’s safe to quit without risking your progress since there’s no on-screen notification to signal when a save is taking place.
That said, there are a few places where you can guarantee a save has happened:
- When you fully complete a mission and return to base
- After fulfilling a mission objective
Here are two methods that guarantee the preservation of your progress, but take caution when concluding a mission goal and exiting the game. On some test runs, we’ve encountered instances where the game failed to save, forcing us back to a significantly earlier stage within the mission.
To keep your advancements and savings secure, it’s best to finish tasks thoroughly and exit the game only upon returning to your base.
It’s a bit inconvenient because typically, automatic saves are displayed on the screen in games labeled as “auto-save-only.” For now, though, this is the most dependable way to save your game’s progress. If an update comes along that alters things, I hope it will improve the situation.
A beneficial aspect is that upon successfully executing a mid-mission save after completing an objective, you’ll be able to resume at precisely the same spot within the mission by returning to base, and then reentering the same mission.
In summary, that’s the only method currently available for saving your game in Space Marine 2. We’ll make sure to update this guide if any changes occur, or if alternative saving techniques are discovered.
