Dawn of War III is an upcoming real-time strategy title developed by Relic Entertainment and Sega, and set in the WH40k universe from Games Workshop. The playable factions available in the game are Space Marines of the Blood Ravens Chapter, who will be familiar to anyone who played the previous Dawn of War installments, as well as the Eldar and the Orks. The three will battle over the legendary Spear of Khaine recently discovered on the lost planet of Acheron.

The game also offers a multiplayer mode, which is said to borrow heavily from the MOBA genre. Common elements include three-lane maps, an emphasis on Elite units, and destroying enemy’s turrets before taking down their core, as reported by Eurogamer.
