We’ve just got a new Battlefield Report from the makers of Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 4, and it’s the game’s multiplayer showcased this time around.
The game’s Creative Director Jan Theysen and Senior Game Designer Elliott Verbiest put the Blood Ravens chapter of the Space Marines through their paces against the Orks in this one, and we can tell you that things get intense. Fighting and sustaining control over key Energy Zones is the main goal for both factions, but how they do that is so vastly different that they change their respective approaches to combat. That’s clearly welcome in a title like this one, and the Space Marines were our personal picks, with their technological prowess giving them a lot of firepower in exchange for high energy costs and smaller unit sizes.
The Orks, however, rely on swarming enemy units, using their numerical superiority with devious precision in the right hands. They’re more than a match for the Blood Ravens, even with some upgraded enemy units threatening to obliterate them. It’s quite an exciting look at the shenanigans you can get up to on the battlefield, almost as exciting as that story update we got a while ago.
This one isn’t too far away, and you can be sure we’ll be battling it out alongside you when it launches on September 17th.
