Although Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine has yet to find release, publisher THQ has already announced downloadable content for the game. Thankfully, it's going to be free.

"Exterminatus" is a co-op mode that allows up to four Space Marines to fight against "hordes of alien enemies in a score based fight to the death." Yes, it's Warhammer's take on Gears of War's Horde mode.
You'll be able to choose between the Tactical Marine, Devastator, or Assault Marine across two scenarios: "Assault on Hab Center Andreas" and "Escape from Kalkya Facility." All XP earned while playing this mode will also count towards the game's universal multiplayer ranks. Expect the DLC to be available in October.

So does this confirm that there is no campaign coop, because if so then I am super dissapointed. Relic did it so well with having campaign coop in Dawn of War 2 and then decide NOT to have that in Space Marine - a game which is going to draw many comparisons with Gears of War and it's coop features. I cannot begin to understand why. Campaign coop for this game should have been a fucking guarantee.

Just based on the demo it seems like there are moments when it wouldn't work to have two people; the jump pack sequences for instance, since two assaulters might be overpowered.

You are broken!

All coop was created equal and awesome, and Horde is no exception. Saying it is worse just makes you broken! You could even make the argument it is better than campaign coop because it so replayable.

I didn't like Last Stand either, but that's quite a different game than this where you have way more control over your character. And I never said I didn't want campaign coop, I'd much rather have both. Horde in Gears and Halo etc etc is tons of fun.

Blasting away a HORDE of Orks in a survival mode is just what I was hoping for.

Have you played the demo? It's crazy fun!

sometimes, when the core gameplay is fun in itself, and challenging enough that you can get good at it in a group, it's fun, even without meaningful story.
