Your expeditionary force has just completed construction of its first space port in orbit of a new world, but you are not alone. Rivals from the old colonial wars between Earth, Titan , Venus , and the other lineages that divide humankind have also arrived in the same star system. "Explore a vast procedurally generated star system filled with planets, moons, asteroid fields, and nebulae. Build and upgrade shipyards, supply depots, refineries, and recon stations as you research new technologies to unlock ship hulls, weapons, orbital facilities, colonization options and more." — Everything we know about Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 — Build your own

Though initially expected to roll out this year, "Falling Frontier" has now been delayed for a worldwide launch sometime in 2025. "Indie development is incredibly difficult, especially for small teams," said Hooded Horse CEO Tim Bender in a late 2023 statement. "We're so proud of what Todd and Stutter Fox Studios have achieved so far and are fully committed to 'Falling Frontier.' We can't wait to show more of the game to fans, but we also want to make sure it has the time it needs to be done right."
