If the creators of Warhammer 40,000: Dawn Of War 4 get their way, the grim darkness of the far future is actually going to be a lot like that halycon summer I spent back in 2010, playing through the first Dawn Of War for the very first time. In a new interview following last night's announcement, KING Art Games co-founder Jan Theysen has described Relic's original real-time strategy game as the new sequel's "guiding star" - specifically for its grander battles and greater emphasis on base-building versus the second game's more focussed, borderline action-RPG campaign and the third game's MOBA-inflected, something-for-everyone approach.

Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War 4 has been announced during Gamescom Opening Night Live.

The Orks are crying out, and it's because Dawn of War 4 is set to release at some point in 2026. The Orks are also crying out in a slightly more thoughtful manner, since the game's coming from German studio King Art Games, rather than original developer Relic.
