Dawn of War II has featured a few of Warhammer 40Kâs alien races, but theyâve never been playable in the gameâs singleplayer campaigns. Thatâs about to change.
In early 2011, Relic and THQ will release Dawn of War II: Retribution, a new expansion for Dawn of War II that features a story-driven campaign letting you play as multiple alien races.
The first of these to be revealed is the Orks, but since Dawn of War II has also featured races like the Tyranid and Eldar, youâd expect them to show up â and be playable â as well.
In addition to this turnaround, Retribution will also have stuff like new units and maps, while THQ also promises an âentire new playable factionâ. I take that to mean a race will be playable weâve never seen in Dawn of War II before, since Dawn of War had almost everyone by the time its expansions dried up. Hereâs hoping itâs the Tau!
