There are many weapons at your disposal in Warhammer: Space Marine 2, but of course not all of them are the same. To help you choose the ones that suit you best, we’ve put together a small selection below.

Primary, secondary or melee weapons
First of all, let’s note that in Space Marine 2 you have several types of weapons at your disposal: the main weapons, the secondary weapons and those for close combat, and that depending on the class you choose, you have a limited choice of weapons and categories.
For example, the Assault class has the peculiarity that you cannot get a main weapon. That’s why we have put together a small selection of diverse and varied weapons below, with which you can find what you are looking for right at the start of the game, regardless of the class you choose.
The best primary weapons in Space Marine 2
The heavy bolter
The Heavy Bolter is one of Space Marine 2 players’ favorite weapons, with its impressive 450-bullet reserve and absolutely insane rate of fire. It’s particularly effective against waves of enemies, but you still need to watch out for overheating.
The melting rifle
One of the great strengths of this weapon in Space Marine 2 is its ability to damage armored enemies. Be careful, though, because if it’s a weapon that hurts, it’s also a shotgun, which means a low ammo reserve and short range.
The sniper bolt rifle
If your playstyle involves firing headshots from a distance, you’ll love this sniper bolt rifle. In fact, it benefits from a strong headshot damage multiplier, although of course this means the rate of fire is low, leaving little room for error.
The best melee weapons
The Chain Sword
If you are looking for a weapon that can kill a large number of enemies in close combat, then look no further! In fact, the chainsaw will serve this function wonderfully, tilling the area and allowing you to get the chores done.
The combat knife
As we just said, the chainsword is designed to cut to the core, even if that means not being very precise. If you want a more effective melee weapon against a targeted enemy, we recommend the combat knife, which is by the way the fastest melee weapon.
The Thunder Hammer
If the Thunder Hammer wasn’t limited to the Assault class, it would certainly be the best melee weapon in the game, at least in AoE. In fact, it shines in this area, allowing you to perform devastating combos, especially by launching you into the air.
The best secondary weapon in Space Marine 2
The heavy bolt pistol
If your class gives you access to the Heavy Bolt Pistol, don’t hesitate for a second, as it is undoubtedly the best secondary weapon in Space Marine 2. In fact, it can do a lot of damage for a weapon.
The Bolt Pistol
The problem is that not everyone has access to the heavy version. But the classic bolt pistol is also a very good weapon. For example, we tend to prefer it to the plasma pistol, which ends up using too much ammo.
