Dawn of War IV sails into September with promises of more factions afterwards
TL;DR
Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War IV will release on September 17, 2026 (Commander Edition on September 14), with a mix of free updates and paid DLC planned post-launch. The autumn return of Crusade Mode, new modes, maps and a mission editor are planned, and paid DLC includes the Blood Ravens Story Prologue and the Aftermath Campaign Expansion, which adds a fifth faction and new commanders. The developers also teased a possible fifth faction—speculated to be Eldar—and said more factions could arrive if the game performs well in the first nine months after launch.
