About Warhammer® 40,000®: Dawn Of War® III

About this game

Developed by Relic Entertainment and published by SEGA.

After an apocalyptic-level weapon is discovered in the mysterious world of Acheron, your only option is to face all of your foes and engage in a three-way war for control over what could be the fate of the world. Take part in this war with your Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III Steam PC key!

Of the Biggest Units Yet!

Take control of some of the most gargantuan units in Total War history to date to tip the war in your favour! Take control of the Imperial Knight when playing as the Space Marines, the Gorkanaut whenever taking control of the Ork, and the Wraithknight when battling as the Eldar!

Large-Scale War

Experience the thrill of a large-scale three-way war as you'll fight on numerous battlefields, including volcanic lands, orbital Star Forts, and many more, as you'll feel how massive these clashes can become — large units, large wars!

Assemble Elite Squads

Unlock numerous elite units to dispatch into battle in order to turn the tide of battle! With unique special abilities and bonuses sure to unlock new strategies to win the war, you'll want to acquire all of the elite squads to show your warring supremacy!

Use Destructive Super-Abilities

Use devastating faction-specific super-abilities to cause heavy casualties on your foes, with each team having its own unique awe-inducing powers. Use the Space Marine's Orbital Bombardment to call a rain of bombs on your enemies, the Eldar's Eldritch Storm to bring death and destruction to your foes, and the Ork's Rokks to counter your unsuspecting rivals! Each super-ability will make you feel powerful and invigorated.

A Three-Faction Campaign

Take part in the campaign as you'll experience alternating quests with all of the factions to truly learn their strengths and weaknesses and come to learn how history looks when there are no heroes nor villains — only war. Take control of the greedy Ork warlord Gorgutz, the Eldar seer Macha, and the Space Marine commander Gabriel Angelos and learn what makes all of their armies unique and powerful.

Create New Alliances... or New Foes

Take part in online modes as you'll be able to take your armies into the multiplayer, where you'll forge new alliances... or turn the tide against them and turn friends into foes, creating explosive and chaotic matches in competitive maps!

Your Army to Rule

Get a universal army to make yours as you customise them through both campaign missions and online multiplayer maps — customise them and create a set that truly screams "you"!

"Dawn of War finally returns with a fascinating, if imperfect, twist on the modern RTS."

"Dawn of War 3 has overly dominant elites, and a merely serviceable campaign, but it captures the power of mass battles well."

"While the campaign can feel like a lifeless chore, the multiplayer options offer interesting tweaks on classic genre staples"
