However, he was also quick to make clear that he won't be disappearing from game development, announcing plans to form a new studio that he's now offered a bit more insight on. Read more

Video: Dawn of War 4 - Vorschau-Video: Wir haben 2 Kampagnen und alle Fraktionen gespielt

Zwei Monate vor dem Release des Echtzeitstrategiespiels Warhammer 40.000: Dawn of War 4 am 3. Dezember für den PC konnten wir ein Preview-Version mit gewaltigem Umfang spielen. Wir konnten nicht nur alle vier für den Release geplante Fraktionen im Gefechts-Modus spielen, sondern auch die ersten zwei von insgesamt vier Story-Kampagnen komplett durchspielen. Das neue Spiel vom deutschen Entwicklerstudio King Art hat uns dabei oft beeindruckt, denn sie haben quasi die Reanimationsprotoko

It took just one week on the market for it to break even, meaning all the costs of the game's development have been recouped. Now, henceforth, Valor Mortis is turning a profit.Official sales numbers have not been shared yet, but anecdotally, I've seen far more chatter and discussion surrounding Valor Mortis compared to

Dawn of War 4 clearly loves the Warhammer 40K strategy games that came before, but it misses that they loved to reinvent themselves

I may have set my expectations for Dawn of War 4 too high, but it's a series that, to my mind, never retreads the same ground. It's therefore been disappointing to feel, having played it across two its campaigns that this long-awaited sequel may have taken too few risks - or been too reverent of the games that came before.

PS5’s Biggest Physical Games Look Very Different From Its Biggest Digital Hits

The furore over Sony's decision to effectively kill physical games on its PlayStation platform appears to have died down (for now), and new data from Alinea Analytics shows how wide the split between physical and digital PS5 games is in 2026. As Alinea's head of market analysis, Rhys Elliott, notes, PlayStation's top new 2026 games by physical copies are mostly single-player AAA titles, with Resident Evil Requiem the best-seller. Capcom's hit Resident Evil game is estimated to have sold 1.3

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV Looks To Right The Wrongs Of Its Predecessor

Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV is arriving nearly a decade after the release of the third game in the real-time strategy series, and after spending some time with an extensive preview build that covered the opening missions of two its campaigns, I’m happy to report that it seems to be a return to form after the ill-received changes in Dawn of War III. The Dawn of War series has always reinvented itself with each entry. Dawn of War II eschewed the first game’s focus on amassing large armies

Prominent capital-p Political game developer and left-wing academic Paulo "Molleindustria" Pedercini has revealed that he used generative AI tools for aspects of recent ecosocialist satire Future?

The Full Dragon’s Dogma 2 Experience Is Cheaper Than Ever, So Eat Your Heart Out

Cyberpunk 2077’s Phantom Liberty, The Witcher 3’s Blood and Wine, and Skyrim’s Dragonborn are some examples. Dark Arisen for Dragon’s Dogma 2 will be treated the same as those legendary DLCs I mentioned, and right now, you can get the entire experience at a great price.

Der neueste Modus von Call of Duty tritt direkt gegen Arc Raiders an. Als Call of Duty das letzte Mal einen „Extraction“-Shooter versuchte, lebten wir noch in einer Welt ohne Arc Raiders. Die DMZ-Beta, die 2022 mit Modern Warfare 2 herauskam, war ein erster Versuch, der es aber letztendlich nicht schaffte, mit seinem „Schießen, PlĂŒndern und Evakuieren“-Zyklus eine nennenswerte Spielerbasis zu begeistern.
