PostSubject: Dawn of War 2 = It's Official!   Thu Apr 03, 2008 4:48 pm

I just got an email from CVG, giving info that THQ are putting together a sequel for Dawn of War!

CVG wrote:
Well, we knew it was coming, but THQ has finally officially revealed Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II.

The sequel is in development at Relic - for PC - which handled the original game, and that was a title that featured ideas that paved the way for the studio's acclaimed RTS Company of Heroes.

According to first official details, Dawn of War II features a non-linear single-player campaign and a fully-co-op multiplayer campaign, the sequel built on an enhanced version of Relic's Essence Engine 2.0, which apparently is sh*t hot.

THQ says that Space Marine and Orkz factions feature - which we already knew - but hints that additional races WILL appear in the game. It's just not confirming which, as yet.

"Powered by the re-vamped Essence Engine 2.0, the next evolution of Relic's proprietary game engine made famous in the award winning Company of Heroes, Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II will deliver fast-paced RTS action with ferocious melee and ranged combat in fully destructible environments", the publisher enthuses.

And folks that bought Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Soulstorm will get to participate in an invitation-only multiplayer beta program for Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II set to take place at a future date.

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II's been slated for release in spring 2009.

I hope that the Eldar, 'nids, Tau and Chaos make the final cut. Hope the units are more to the game.

maybe with the new engine they could include new units such as thoisand sons and maybe include special characters instead of super heavys(abaddon might be more useful than a bloodthirster)

i would like to see a warhound as a super heavy Twisted Evil

I never really like the Blood Ravens. I thought they were a bit pompous. I preferred that Khorne Lieutenant from Dark Crusade I think it was? But he is a solid character that Angelos! xD
