How to Fix Space Marine 2 Crashing Mid-Mission (PC)

If Space Marine 2 runs fine in menus but closes to the desktop partway into an Operation or a campaign mission, work through the steps below in order. They start with the fastest fix and end with the one that takes the longest. If you have not tried the checks on the main crash page yet, start there: → How to Fix Space Marine 2 Crashing

1. Clean-install your graphics drivers
Installing a new driver over an old one often leaves the problem in place. NVIDIA: download the latest driver from nvidia.com and choose Custom (Advanced) → Perform a clean installation. AMD: run the AMD Cleanup Utility first, restart, then install the latest Adrenalin driver. Restart your PC after the install.

2. Perform a clean boot
A clean boot starts Windows with only Microsoft services, so you can tell whether background software is causing the crash. Press Win + R, type msconfig → Services tab → check Hide all Microsoft services → Disable all → Startup tab → Open Task Manager → disable every entry → restart your PC and play a full mission. If it does not crash, re-enable your startup programs a few at a time to find the one responsible.

3. Reinstall the game
A reinstall replaces every game file, including ones a verification pass cannot repair. Your progress is stored on your account and in cloud saves, not in the game files. Uninstall through your storefront, delete any leftover files in the install folder, then install again.
