Space Marine demo out next week, this week for Steam pre-orders

The upcoming orc-hunting third-person shooter Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine will have a demo available for the Xbox 360 and PC next week on August 22, and on the PlayStation 3 August 23, as announced by THQ today. Those who pre-ordered the game through Steam will be lucky enough to get early demo access starting this Thursday.

There are two different levels within the demo; one will feature the game's ranged-melee coupled combat, while the other will have Space Marine's main character, Captain Titus, "take to the skies to rain death from above."

If you love the demo, then consider picking Space Marine up when it releases on September 6.
