How it feels

Commanding squads in fast, brutal tactical battles with a customizable campaign that feels urgent and visceral.

What players say

Players praise the variety of six playable races and the Last Stand mode, but note the campaign is short and mostly reuses the same missions for each faction. The difficulty can spike with tanky bosses, and some prefer the progression in Dawn of War 2's earlier campaigns.
