WH40K Space Marine 2 - Black Screen and Infinite Loading Screen Are not Bugs
WH40K Space Marine 2 is a game which is awaited by many. If you encounter infinite loading screen or a black screen, we have interesting information for you.
Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine 2 is here. Of course, thousands of players are waiting for the title to appear. It will be available in a few hours for people who have bought Gold and Ultra Editions. Without a doubt numerous gamers will join Early Access and may come across the same question as I asked myself – am I looking at black screen or infinite loading screen? The answer is quite simple – probably not.
WH40K Space Marine 2 - Black Screen and Infinite Loading Screen Explained
During your first start of Space Marine 2 you may have some moments of doubt, as the blackness in front of your eyes may be a little bit too long (if we speak about colors, it is a good opportunity to discuss HDR). Don’t worry though, as it is calculated. The game just loads itself, shaders included, and it may take some time. The good thing is that it will be better next time. So, just be patient and kill time doing something else. Of course, there might be some real problems with launching the game and black screen.

How to Fix Black Screen and Infinite Loading Screen in WH40K Space Marine 2
As I said, there might be some problems with black screen and infinite loading screen. I can think right now of 2 scenarios, which can occur.
- The game is installed on HDD. More and more games require nowadays SSD, this is also true in the case of Space Marine 2. As we know from the story of Star Wars Outlaws, installing such a title on the slower drive can cause infinite loading screen.
- The second scenario is if you booted the game in offline mode. While you can play that way (of course with some restrictions), if you start Space Marine 2 for the first time without the Internet, be prepared for some problems. It should be alright the next time, though.
