Steam wrote:About This Game
Step into a brutal battle between three warring factions

In Dawn of War III you will have no choice but to face your foes when a catastrophic weapon is found on the mysterious world of Acheron.

With war raging and the planet under siege by the armies of greedy Ork warlord Gorgutz, ambitious Eldar seer Macha, and mighty Space Marine commander Gabriel Angelos, supremacy must ultimately be suspended for survival.

UNLEASH THE GIANTS
Take control of towering war machines and tip the balance of battle in your favor with the biggest characters in Dawn of War history. Turn the tide with the mighty Imperial Knight (Space Marine), the clattering Gorkanaut (Ork), or the haunting Wraithknight (Eldar).

COLOSSAL BATTLES
Dawn of War is famous for its epic action and those immense clashes are back - but now they're off-the-scale. Wage war with massive armies across violent volcanic terrain or mighty orbital Star Forts.

CALL UP YOUR ELITES
Take your battle plans to another level by deploying powerful collectible elite squads, each boasting their own special abilities and bonuses that will help you unlock and develop new attacking strategies to conquer your foes.

DESTRUCTIVE ABILITIES
Cause devastation on the battlefield with powerful super-abilities. Rain down total destruction on your enemies with the Space Marine's Orbital Bombardment, the Eldar's blistering Eldritch Storm or the Ork’s Rokks to counter your unsuspecting rivals.

THREE-FACTION CAMPAIGN
Learn what makes each force formidable through alternating missions. You'll soon come to understand the combat advantages of Space Marines, Orks, and Eldar and the rules of a universe with no heroes or villains… only war.

ONE ARMY TO RULE
Build your own universal army from the very first moment you are matched in a melee. Progress through battle after battle with loyal troops by your side across both challenging campaign missions and dominating multiplayer maps.

A NEW DAWN ONLINE
Your army will wreak havoc in online skirmish mode. Join the multiplayer community and forge new alliances - then turn the tables on your new 'friends' as they become foes in explosive, chaotic and competitive maps.

The screens above are the only ones from the Steam page that the forum will allow me to attach, for some reason. I looked on Google for more, but it's surprisingly hard to find any. There are a few super-high res ones, that the forum again will not allow me to attach, and some cropped shitty ones that I wouldn't want to post anyway. So for the time being those three will have to do I guess. Just go to Steam and click on all the ones that are there: they are the best you will find online at this point. Even the official site has no real screens at all.

The RTS sequel comes out next month.

Dawn of War III, the newest Warhammer 40k game from Relic and Sega, will launch for PC on April 27, it was announced today.

There will be three versions available: Standard, Limited, and Collector's. The Collector's edition comes with the most goodies, including the Godsplitter Daemon Hammer, as well as three mounted cloth faction banners. It also includes a lenticular art card and the soundtrack, while the game itself comes in a "premium disc book." The Limited edition, meanwhile, features the disc book, the art card, and the soundtrack.

Everyone who preorders Dawn of War III gets the Masters of War Skin Pack. This comes with skins for the game's Super Walker Elites:

The Dark Queen skin for Lady Solaria (Imperial Knight)
The Ghost Seer skin for Farseer Taldeer (Wraithknight)
The Big Kustom skin for Beauty (Morkanaut)
You still get the Super Walkers if you don't preorder, but they won't have the special skins.

"We're thrilled to tell fans know that they don't have to wait much longer to return to battle," Dawn of War III game director Philippe Boulle said in a statement. "The whole team can't wait to bring back Dawn of War, bigger and better than ever. April can't come soon enough!"

Pricing for the Dawn of War III Limited and Collector's editions was not announced.

Relic Entertainment has said the game is the "Dawn of War that fans have been waiting for."

"Our biggest units ever? Check. Giant orbital lasers? Check. Base-building, epic heroes, huge battles, it's all in there. Get ready for the biggest Dawn of War yet," said executive producer Stephen MacDonald.

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II was released in 2009. The 2004 original and the sequel were developed by Company of Heroes studio Relic Entertainment, which was sold to Sega for $26.6 million as part of the THQ bankruptcy.

Dawn of War III is the first entry in the series Relic has developed as a studio wholly owned by Sega.

20 Minutes of Dawn of War 3 Space Marine Multiplayer Gameplay

It looks absurdly better than 2. It makes 2 look like an "indie" mini-game. I don't know much about 2 from a mechanical perspective, but I can already see that the cover mechanics here are a lot more substantial, for instance. And graphically, forget about it.

This CG trailer is also pretty cool:

I generally don't enjoy CG trailers, but this one is worth watching.
