Hitting Prestige is great for restarting with an extra bonus, providing players with new opportunities to go at it again and earn their perks, along with the advantages of having an exclusive and permenant perk associated with prestige, so listed below is both how to prestige, and every Prestige Perk for every Class.

How to Prestige in Space Marine 2

bulwark hits the prestige rank

In order to prestige in Space Marine 2, players must have reached Level 25 on any character. Once they have hit Level 25, they can enter the Armoring Hall to select the Perk Customisation option on the right, where at the bottom of the page, there will be an Unlock Prestige Level section. At Level 25, players can prestige for 100 Requisition Points. If players are short on Requisition Points, a vendor in the Armoring Hall sells them for Armory Data.

Once players exchange 100 Requisition Points for Prestige, they will have to choose a perk for Prestige Perk Slot 1. There are 7 Prestige Perks per Class to choose from, and it's important to take the one that's right for you as there's no going back once it's been exchanged, and they will have to reach Level 25 again to get all of their perks back and to hit the next prestige rank for an additional permanent perk.

Initiating a Prestige Level will grant players an additional 10% XP boost with the Class they hit prestige with, and this stacks by 10% for every prestige on said Class.
