Today, it has surpassed even our wildest dreams,\u201d Focus said.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">It\u2019s worth noting this is not an announcement of 12 million <em>sales<\/em>. While Space Marine 2 has sold wonderfully well, its player count was boosted by its recent addition into video game subscription services. All told, the Saber Interactive-developed third-person action game has blown away all expectations, with Space Marine 3 in active development even as Space Marine 2 updates continue.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">In a recent interview with IGN, Saber development chief Tim Willits denied the suggestion that the priority is now the development of Space Marine 3, promising more content to come.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">\u201cNo, we actually just released a big update and it&#8217;s still going strong,\u201d Willits said, referring to the Techmarine update. \u201cWere we at number four on the top sales? So it&#8217;s still doing great for us. And we just released a big update. And like World War Z, we&#8217;re still making content for that, while the team obviously works on Space Marine 3.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Wesley is Director, News at IGN.
