Warhammer 40,000: Dawn Of War Gets The Definitive Edition Treatment, Out Later This Year

Relic Entertainment revealed a modernized, 64-bit edition of their classic strategy game set in the Warhammer 40K universe, scheduled to launch on PC later in 2025.
The announcement follows the intent to preserve the classic Dawn of War experience while updating it for smoother play on modern hardware.
The Definitive Edition consolidates the base game and all expansions under one executable, features improved lighting, widescreen HUD, and supports over 20 years of community mods.
The game includes four campaigns, nine armies, more than 200 maps, 4K support, upscaled textures, and uses the RelicLink backend for multiplayer matchmaking.
This release aims to renew access for fans and maintain modding continuity while the franchise’s future, including a potential Dawn of War 4, remains uncertain.
