Like Titus crashing through a swarm of gaunts, Space Marine 2 is showing no signs of slowing down. Patch 5.0, the "Obelisk Update", is a doozy, adding new content, reworking core systems, and giving players even more incentive to murder the enemies of mankind by the thousands.
The headliner is a new Operation, appropriately called Obelisk. Taking place during the final mission of the story campaign, it charges your team with flipping one of those big magical thingies to help Titus save the day. It's cool to see this one added—it was actually a slightly weird omission before, as the story mission heavily hints at a parallel co-op mission that until now wasn't there. Now all's right with the (daemon) world, and more multiplayer content to blast through is always welcome.
