Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Definitive Edition

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Definitive Edition lives up to its title, delivering the best way to experience the classic RTS, even if it could use a bit more polish.

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Definitive Edition is the ideal remaster, but nothing has really changed mechanically, so many of the old issues with balancing still exist.

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War is often considered one of the best games in the Warhammer community. Until recently, I had missed it mainly because it was released when I was seven. Thankfully, Relic Entertainment has helped me right that wrong by releasing Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Definitive Edition. As the name suggests, it brings the classic 2004 RTS to modern-day standards by polishing it up while staying true to what made the original game so iconic in the first place.

New players will undoubtedly love the fast paced RTS action, the Army Painter tool, and the potential for easily accessible mods that the Warhammer 40K: Dawn Of War Definitive Edition provides. Veteran players might also love all those things, but may balk at having to pay for what is essentially a quality-of-life patch for a game they already had.
