Dawn of War trailer shows off some multiplayer, Tyranids look awesome

Recommended Videos

Relic Entertainment’s Dawn of War II has a multiplayer component, but we’re guessing you already knew that. The video above walks viewers through character selection and provides an excellent glimpse of the many of the gameplay elements involved in competitive play.

Despite a campaign that features only the Blood Ravens, it is quite plain that the other races in the game are open for multiplayer. If you can look past the ridiculously big explosions (get ready for splash damage), you’ll notice that the player can represent all the races in the game — the Eldar, Tyranids, Orcs and Human factions. Also, the tanks are bigger.

Visually, the Dawn of War II is far superior to what I originally anticipated. Hopefully, THQ will play nice and not require us to buy thousands of dollars of upgrades just to check this out when it hits early next year.
