Exciting News for RTS Enthusiasts: Warhammer 40k Dawn of War’s Highly Anticipated Remaster Has Arrived

Hey, so you know if you’re into RTS games and happen to be of a, let’s say, “vintage” age, Warhammer 40k Dawn of War probably holds a special place in your heart. I mean, it’s like Command and Conquer but, you know, with that Warhammer twist. And guess what? Just a few weeks shy of its 21st birthday—can you believe it’s been that long?—it’s getting a remaster. Relic Entertainment, the original developer, is back at it. Ah, nostalgia! Jump right into this refreshed version on Steam or GOG. Plus, there’s this neat discount if you’ve already got the older version—30% off, baby!

Now, Warhammer RTS games—yeah, there are plenty, but Dawn of War was the granddaddy. Launched in September 2004, it was love at first click for strategy fans. It got three expansions: Winter Assault, Dark Crusade, and Soulstorm. This remaster packs all of that goodness into one bundle. It’s like a trip down memory lane, all dressed up and ready for the big screen.

They’re calling it the Dawn of War Definitive Edition. Sounds fancy, right? You get all these new visual treats, like 4K support, upgraded textures, fresh lighting—the whole shebang. And finally, a HUD that doesn’t make your widescreen monitor look ancient. Gameplay’s mostly the same, but hey, pathfinding and army handling got a boost. And let’s not forget, it still plays nice with community mods—20 years’ worth of them!

Relic is pretty sure this is the Dawn of War folks remember. So, dust off those Space Marines and Orks. Fire up your nostalgia engines. And here’s the kicker: two sweet discounts await you.

Right now, on Steam and GOG, Warhammer 40k Dawn of War Definitive Edition is live. There’s a little 10% intro discount, making it $26.99 / £21.59 for newbies. But the real deal is a 30% knockout for those who’ve been loyal enough to have the Dawn of War Anniversary Edition. Talk about rewards for loyalty!
