How To Access the Space Marine 2 Public Test Server on Steam

Saber Interactive has done a great job of supporting Space Marine 2 since its launch back in 2024 with new content updates, features, and continued bug fixes. Patch 7 is the next major update, which adds plenty of new features including custom PvP lobbies, new weapons, customization, and missions.

If you’re eager to try out the patch before it officially launches and share feedback with the developers, you can do so by accessing the Public Test Server for Space Marine 2, and here is how.

Access the Space Marine 2 Public Test Server

The Private Test server for Space Marine 2 is available as a separate game in your Steam library and includes WIP content.

• Open Steam, you might have to restart it if you haven’t in a while
• Navigate to your library (You need to own a copy of Space Marine 2)
• Here, search for “Space Marine 2 Test Server” and it will show up in the list right below Space Marine 2.

• Right-click on it, select Properties, and make sure the default language is set to English in the General tab.
• Download and install the Space Marine 2 Public Test Server just like any other Steam game. Keep in mind that this is a separate build, and the files will be completely separate as well.

Space Marine 2 Public Test Server Schedule

The test server build is now available until Patch 7.0 officially launches. You can provide feedback to the developers on the Focus Together forums.

Since this is a public test server, you are free to create content from this build. The progress, however, will not be saved as this isn’t the main build of Space Marine 2. Mods aren’t supported either, and while most of the content from Patch 7 is available in this, some of it requires extra work according to the developers, and will be available at the launch of this patch.
