Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War III for macOS and Linux updated with new multiplayer modes and defenses

Take your battle plans to another level with a new map, doctrines, skins and modes for Dawn of War III.

NEW MULTIPLAYER MODES AND DOCTRINES

Play ‘Annihilation Classic’ mode to eliminate your opponent's core structures with the help of new doctrines that let you build faction-specific turrets. Or opt for ‘Annihilation with Defenses’ mode to kick off with several turrets already installed, giving you more time to prepare your army. Discover more in the video below:

NEW MULTIPLAYER MAP

Mortis Vale is an incredible new battlefield to host your off-the-scale clashes. Strewn with ruined Gothic arches and columns, Mortis Vale is perfect for devastating ambushes.

NEW SKINS

The ‘Engines of Annihilation’ skin pack gives your super walkers some extra style with the ‘House Raven’ skin for the Imperial Knight Paladin, the ‘Exalted’ skin for the Wraithknight, and the ‘Deathskulls’ skin for the Gorkanaut.

To stir up a storm with this awesome new content, update your game for free or buy Dawn of War III from the Feral Store.
