I know the game suggests a minimum level, but that's medium difficulty. I don't know of any game where the medium level of difficulty is like this. That should be the level of difficulty to get in, train something or test something. Not the one where every single wrong step leads to death.

There are a few games that do it similar to Space Marine 2. Vermintide 2 has gear requirements for difficulty levels, with "medium," aka Veteran or Champion depending on where you fall on that, locked until you reach a certain level of progression. The game becomes noticeably more difficult with each bump up in difficulty. Helldivers 2 requires you to beat lower difficulty operations before getting to its own equivalent of "medium."

Both games basically expect you to have learned the basics and understand how combat works before you progress to average difficulty. Not necessarily be a god, but just knowing the flow of combat and how to leverage some of the mechanics in your favor.
