Deep Silver and KING Art Games have officially unveiled the full-length CGI opening cinematic for the Space Marines in Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 4. The Blood Ravens and the Dark Angels join forces in the Battle of Kronus—prepare for the greatest alliance seen in a millennium!
The Space Marines are humanity’s finest defenders, clad in ancient power armor and wielding the most advanced weaponry the Imperium has to offer. They take on the most daunting missions and confront the deadliest foes, securing victory in dire situations where ordinary soldiers would be utterly annihilated. Yet, on Kronus, even the Adeptus Astartes may find themselves pushed to the brink.
The enigmatic Blood Ravens share a deep connection with Kronus, which serves as a vital recruitment world for their Chapter. When the Great Rift tore the galaxy in two, Captain Cyrus, Jonah Orion, and their forces found themselves stranded on the far side, completely cut off from reinforcements. Having suffered heavy casualties, they returned to Kronus in hopes of replenishing their ranks—only to be met not with respite, but with a tidal wave of xenos forces. Defeat seemed all but certain, until the arrival of the Dark Angels turned the tide of battle…
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 4 is set to launch on December 3, 2026. Players who purchase the Commander Edition will gain 3 days of early access, allowing them to deploy on the battlefield starting November 30. Both editions are now available for pre-order with a 10% discount.
The conflict will continue long after launch. Free updates throughout the first year will include the return of the Expedition Mode, alongside new maps, game modes, commanders, and a mission editor. Furthermore, two major narrative expansions will be released, deepening the conflict on Kronus and introducing an entirely new playable faction to the battlefield.
