Bluesnews is reporting that a post on the Space Marine Forums has revealed that co-op support for the upcoming third person shooter Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine will be added after the game’s release.
The post also details when the co-op mode will be added, and what will be involved:
1.) Space Marine will have Co-Op added in 30 days give or take after launch.
a.) Why? We wanted to polish up the Co-Op aspect of Space Marine.
2.) The GameStop Co-Op call out was old information and we have a nice slate of info to cover all your Co-Op needs.
3.) Everyone who purchases Space Marine at retail (brand new) will get Co-Op for FREE. If you buy the game one year from now the Co-Op option will still be Free as long as the game is sealed brand new from retail.
It seems that the co-op mode is less about “polishing” the game, and more about combating rentals and used game sales.
