Dawn of War II ‘There is Only War’ Multiplayer Dev Battle - II

Here’s an exclusive Battle Report narrated by Relic’s Multiplayer Designer Josh Long and Game Balance Designer Stefan Haines. The new replay UI is used in the 24 minute video to watch Stefan Haines and Braden Chan duke it out while they play as Space Marines and Orks respectfully. The battle is waged on the new Tyrannoformed 2p map, Leviathan Hive.

Josh and Stefan provide a play-by-play of the action while revealing new Ork and Space Marine changes introduced from the balance update of ‘There is Only War’. The video shows how to use combinations of unit types to directly counter opposing forces. You’ll see how sharper unit roles and newly introduced abilities result in greater strategic depth.

The Battle Report is also available todownload on Steam in 720p if you want a high-resolution view of the carnage.


We here at Relic can’t wait to release ‘There is Only War’, and know the changes reflect a more engaging and balanced multiplayer experience. If you haven’t done so already, check out the first Developer Battle that we posted earlier in the week. It shows a Tyranid vs. Eldar battle on the new Outer Reaches map.

Stay tuned on this blog for more updates, more information, and details on how to participate in the ‘There is Only War’ Beta coming later this summer.
