Dawn of War IV Trailer Unites Blood Ravens and Dark Angels

The Blood Ravens are getting some much-needed backup. King Art Games and Deep Silver have released the complete Space Marines CGI introduction for Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV, showing the chapter fighting alongside the Dark Angels in the battle for Kronus.

The new trailer arrives ahead of the strategy game’s December 3, 2026, launch on PC, with Commander Edition players gaining access three days earlier on November 30.

The Dark Angels Join the Fight for Kronus

Kronus has long served as an important recruitment world for the Blood Ravens. After the Great Rift splits the galaxy, Captain Cyrus, Jonah Orion, and their forces find themselves cut off from reinforcements and suffering mounting casualties.

Their return to Kronus should replenish the chapter’s ranks. Instead, they encounter waves of xenos forces that push even the Space Marines toward defeat. The Dark Angels arrive to turn the tide, bringing the two chapters together against the threats waiting on the planet.

December Launch and Year One Content Plans

Dawn of War IV launches December 3, with a three-day Early Unlock beginning November 30 for Commander Edition owners. Both editions are available to preorder with a 10% discount.

King Art Games and Deep Silver have also outlined plans for the game’s first year. Free updates will bring back Crusade Mode and add maps, modes, Commanders, and a Mission Editor.

Two major story expansions are also planned, continuing the conflict on Kronus and introducing a new playable faction. Further details on those expansions have not yet been shared.
