Relicnews: the definitive source for all things Relic

DoW2 - IGN Preview

Posted in Dawn of War by on December 4th, 2008

Thunder let me know that there is an article about the Blood Ravens up at IGN.

THQ has released a new trailer showcasing the Space Marines at the heart of the single-player campaign for Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II. The real-time strategy game from Relic looks to be one of the key strategy games for 2009, and the good news is that it’s scheduled for release early in the year rather than at the end. The game builds upon the foundation that Relic established with the superb Company of Heroes games, but rather than World War II you’re battling on alien worlds with elite squads of Space Marines. We recently had a chance to play the opening act of the game, and it differs from most real-time strategy games (at least in the single-player) by eschewing base building and resource gathering and focusing more on tactical battles that can be fought and won in 15 to 20 minutes.

A new trailer, and screens are included.
