Dozens of thousands of players are currently enjoying the brand new Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, and the game is still in advanced launch. This means that currently, only the owners of premium editions (Gold and Ultra) are in the game, and we've yet to know the amount of players who bought a standard edition.

According to SteamDB, the peak online player count for the game on Valve's service (at the time of publication) stands at 134,302 players. This figure far surpasses the achievements of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine. As we remember, the game, which was released in 2011, only managed to gather 15,653 players simultaneously. So that makes the launch of the game super successful.
