Original Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine Gets Surprise Master Crafted Edition on PC and Xbox Game Pass — but There’s No PS5 Version

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine is getting a surprise Master Crafted Edition, launching June 10 on PC and Xbox Series X and S, and straight into Game Pass.

No PlayStation 5 version was mentioned by publisher Sega, which retains the rights to the Relic Entertainment-developed original third-person shooter.

This is described as the “definitive edition” of Captain Titus and the Ultramarines’ fight against the Ork hordes. Space Marine was first published by THQ back in 2011 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. The Master Crafted Edition was developed by SneakyBox, and has a 4K resolution, modernized controls, an interface overhaul, improved character models, and remastered audio, which includes over 100 new voice lines for the Orks.

“Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine – Master Crafted Edition isn’t just a technical upgrade — it’s a thoughtful restoration,” said producer Vaidas Mikelskas from SneakyBox. “We aimed to preserve the spirit of the original while modernizing the experience for today’s players.

“This is more than just Master Crafted Edition, it’s a respectful dialogue between past and present, preserving what made the original special while making it shine for a new generation of players.”

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine – Master Crafted Edition gameplay features:

• Storm Into Battle: Experience 40,000 years of combat, evolved. Step fearlessly into the heart of combat as Captain Titus, an unstoppable Space Marine. Titus will not hide and does not cower, as he purges all that stands.

• Define Your Class: In Multiplayer mode unlock and upgrade weapons, armor and abilities to further empower combat options and personalise your Space Marine to match your preferred playstyle. Experiment and explore all of the options provided by the Imperium.
• Updated Ork Identity: The Ork horde’s identity is fully aligned with the latest Warhammer 40,000 lore, benefitting from new character models and over 100 new voice lines.
• Modernised UI and Control Scheme: Take the fight to Ork horde with reworked and improved UI and control options, updated for a new generation of players.
• Take The Fight Online: Form a squad or warband to face off in 8 vs 8 online matches. Earn experience and unlock new weapons and armor to customize the Devastator, Assault, and Tactical Marine classes.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine eventually got its sequel, the smash hit that was 2024’s Space Marine 2. That game got an announcement of its own, a new Siege mode coming to test players’ resolve. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War – Definitive Edition was announced during the Warhammer Skulls 2025 broadcast. In case you missed it, check out all the announcements and trailers from the show.
