To maximize the game, the developers also made several changes to the gameplay of Space Marine 2. One of them is their melee system and perfect block mechanism.

In the melee system, players previously had to rely heavily on the Parry and Gun Strike flow during close combat.

To add more variety, Melee Damage norms have been increased overall so players can use other combinations instead of just relying on Parry and Gun Strike.

Furthermore, the developers also changed the way Blocking Weapon works significantly. This allows players to accumulate 3 stacks of Melee Damage buff.

Attacking with a stack of these buffs will result in an AoE attack with much greater damage.

All Block Weapons will have new mechanics, namely Perfect Block and Adrenaline Surge. Players can use 3 stacks of Adrenaline Surge which can increase Melee Damage.

Attacks with 3 stacks of Adrenaline Surge can help players to release large AoE Damage, make enemies falter, and restore 1 Armor Segment.
