In the Games Workshop Warhammer 40,000 universe, the populations of contested galaxies and systems know for a fact that there’s only one thing on everyone’s mind – war. It seems as though Relic knows this well, as they’ve announced a new bunch of content for Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II.
Along with declarations of war on balancing, bugs, and exploits, which will all be addressed in the upcoming “There is Only War” update, those who wandered away from Dawn of War II to other games will be happy to know that eight new maps will be added to the game along with all the balancing and bug fixes that are coming.
In super good news for those frustrated to no end about the current balance, Relic will even be holding an Open Beta for the new balancing issues in a bid to try and satisfy the entire player base before needlessly nerfing or buffing particular units.
In addition to all this, a new “Observer” feature will be added to the game, allowing custom games to be viewed by an observer and referee as the game is played, in an attempt to make Dawn of War II more relevant to the competitive community.
The new maps will launch with the update (and presumably, open beta – which is scheduled to go live in July for all owners of Dawn of War II) are shown below, along with a first glimpse of the maps. All up, there is four new two play maps, two new four player maps, and two new six player maps.
