There are a lot of weapons in Space Marine 2, all of which can be acquired in the campaign. When you move into PvP and the Operations you will get to mess around with all of the weapons, level them up, and then get the perks and skins that change the way they play slightly. Not to mention there are some special weapons in the campaign you can use too, that play slightly differently. Here’s a closer look at all the Space Marine 2 weapons and what to expect from them.
All Space Marine 2 weapons by class
Note that we have included all weapons, and what classes for multiplayer use them. Don’t worry about this in the campaign, as all weapons are usable by your campaign characters. There are even campaign weapons you come across that are not available to players in multiplayer either, so they are marked with the N/A tag.
Note that each weapon has its own usefulness and flavour. We recommend playing with them to get a feel for your playstyle and what weapons work better for Operations, swarms, elites, campaign enemies and bosses, or in PvP.

How to get weapons in Space Marine 2
During the campaign, players can use the Armoury feature, enabling them to select a loadout before heading into a mission. Different weapons on the table are allowed to enter each mission. If you’re doing PvP or Operations, you can create loadouts that enable you to preset the weapons and load-outs you want to use. You will be restricted to what weapons are available to what class you’re playing, which is something to keep in mind. If you’re in the campaign, you can find loose pick-up weapons as you explore the map.
We have also included explosives in the table too. These are the different types of grenades you can get, specifically for the campaign and operations modes. Any class can pick these items up and use them as they see fit. Grenades and other explosives almost always drop near supply areas on the map itself.
This concludes everything you need to know about the weapons list in Space Marine 2. Good luck finding your perfect build for your campaign or class gameplay.
