What are the Best Space Marine 2 Mods? We’ve hand-picked our favorite mods for Space Marine 2, ones we think you should use to control the corruption of the Chaos Marines and Defend the Imperium.
Most of these mods are for use in the single-player campaign. It’s important to avoid using them in cooperative or online modes, as doing so could result in a server ban. You see, some mods function as cheats, which would create an unfair advantage over other players who aren’t using them. Make sure you deactivate them before going online with Space Marine 2.

Holstered Weapons Workshop
You may recall some of the original promotional trailers for Space Marine 2 where weapons would be Holstered onto the marine’s armour, Gears of War style. WarhammerWorkshop has brought that back, creating a more authentic look. This cosmetic change can easily be toggled off or on.
Chaos Operations Faction
This mod allows players to switch from the loyalist Space Marines in Space Marine 2’s Operations mode to their Chaos counterparts. Join the Chaos forces and battle against the Imperium in relentless PvE missions, putting players on a sinister new direction of darkness.
Deathwatch Campaign Conversion
KillerWhaley has released a new mod that completely overhauls all in-game character models and cutscenes, incorporating Titus and his companions into the Deathwatch - a unit composed exclusively of Veteran Space Marines. The Deathwatch is the primary, often sole, line of defense against terrifying foes such as Orks, Tyranids, Drukhari, C’tan, and Necrons.
Praise The Chaos
Chaos can corrupt and lead lesser men and women to their damnation. Would you rather be a Heretic Astartes during the campaign? Play as the Chaos Space Marines in the campaign and fight against the False God to turn your brothers against his will.
Play Campaign Missions in Operations
For obvious reasons, the base game doesn’t allow you to play campaign missions in operations, but thankfully modder KillerWhaley has unlocked this feature so now you can play through the campaign with your chosen class and two AI teammates. You can reply most of the missions this way, but the developer did point out that it could be buggy.
Instant Armor Unlock
There aren’t any cheats available in Space Marine 2 to help you unlock some of the armour cosmetics that you get when progressing through the game, but KillerWhaley’s handy little mod will save you some time by letting you personalise your Space Marine just the way you want from the start. All the victory requirements have been removed.
High CPU Priority
For all the old-timers in the Imperium, if your CPU is struggling to run Space Marine 2, ChemBoy1’s mod could be the solution. This mod applies a simple registry edit to enable High CPU Priority for the Space Marine 2 executable, which can help stabilise performance, especially on lower-end CPUs. You can download it here.
More CORPSE
You can almost smell the foul stench of torn Tyranid flesh as you cut through them with your Chainsword, but where are the bodies? Do you want to witness the full carnage you’ve unleashed on the battlefield? MoiCestTOM wants to see more destruction, so now you can use this mod to increase the limit of ragdoll “corpse”.
