The recently announced roadmap for Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 has provided details for Season 3, the next wave of content confirmed as a free update for the game. Along with Packs for different Chapters, you can expect a wealth of added maps, ranks, and even a new game mode. After Season 2 dropped in October 2024, there's no doubt that Season 3 will also deliver interesting changes to explore.

As you may have seen from Space Marine 2's 2024 roadmap, Seasons 1 & 2 were the only ones planned for this year following the game's launch. Every Season of content is free to download except the Dark Angels Packs seen in Season 2. Those cosmetics for a fan-favorite Warhammer Chapter of Space Marines were only available for those who had purchased the Season Pass.

Space Marine 2 Season 3 Release Window Explained
Expect Content Sooner Than You May Expect
As of this time of writing, Season 3 is expected to release in early 2025, likely in the first few months of the new year. Although there is no exact release date, the timeframe between Seasons 1 and 2 was only a month, making for a brief window between content drops. With the holidays in November and December, we may likely see Season 3 as early as mid to late January.

However, Season 3 does stand to introduce more content than the previous two Seasons combined. According to the roadmap shared by developer Saber Interactive, Season 3 is the largest DLC of the four planned Seasons announced before. As a result, it may take more time for Season 3 to come out, with a February or March 2025 window matching realistic expectations.

Similar to the Dark Angels Pack in Season 2, there will be two new Space Marine Chapters coming in Season 3. These Chapters will gain never-before-seen cosmetics as they are introduced, but only Season Pass holders will obtain new Chapter Packs. With over 30 existing Chapters in Space Marine 2 currently, there's a lot of speculation as to which faction of humanity players will see next.
One of the most requested Chapters to be added in Space Marine 2 is two different Chaos Legions for the game's PvP mode. While heretical factions can get added, it is unlikely as they can only be used in one mode.
At this moment, there is no knowledge of which Chapters will be added in Season 3, but other information has been released regarding what they'll get. The Packs that will drop with Season 3 include:
- Chapter 1 - Champion Pack
- Chapter 1 - Cosmetic Pack
- Chapter 1 - Weapon Skin Pack
- Chapter 2 - Champion Pack

The first Chapter will have three different Packs in the same way the Dark Angels did in Season 2. Notably, that faction received not only a variety of armor cosmetics but also unique designs for weapons. The Bulwark class in particular received a new shield entirely customized to represent the new Chapter's inclusion, so you can expect to see an equal level of integration from Season 3's first DLC Chapter.

A new Operations mission in Space Marine 2 is enhanced with Season 2's Lethal difficulty, which ups the challenge for you and your squad. The "New Enemy" will likely be seen in this mission, similar to the Tyranid Hierophant Bio-Titan seen in the new PvE mission added in Season 2. New Prestige Ranks in those fresh Operations will also help distinguish yourself among your peers during dangerous missions.

Season 4 plans to add a unique Horde Mode separate from the other modes of Space Marine 2, but little is known about this update since it also is planned to be released sometime in 2025.
Once again, the cosmetics of two new Chapters will take up a bulk of the free DLC, but only for Season Pass holders. Despite the little information about everything coming to Season 3 in Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2, past Seasons can give you a good idea about how humanity's fight will continue.
