The remaining seasons will follow the same format, providing new game modes, missions, weapons, and other additional in-game content for free while giving Season Pass owners cosmetics. The featured chapters for the third and fourth seasons have yet to be announced, but the paid content for Season 2 will be themed around one of Warhammer 40,000's strongest Space Marine chapters, the Dark Angels.
Focus Entertainment's Year One Battle Plan did not explicitly state that only loyalist groups would receive skins, so it is possible for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's Chaos-aligned chapters to get cosmetic packs in the future as well. Several Traitor Legions have already been confirmed to be in the game, namely the Alpha Legion, Death Guard, Iron Warriors, Night Lords, Thousand Sons, and World Eaters.
Alongside the Orks, the Forces of Chaos were among the major antagonists of the original game, which also starred Demetrian Titus of the Ultramarines. Trailers and other marketing materials for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 have suggested that the followers of the Ruinous Powers may once again play a key role in the upcoming game's narrative. Saber Interactive's sequel will follow Titus, now a Primaris lieutenant, as the Fourth Tyranid War unfolds in the Western Reaches of Segmentum Pacificus.
