Opinion and Analysis



6) What can you tell us about your post-launch plans?  Will there be downloadable content for Dawn of War II?

We have extensive post-launch support planned, but before we talk about post-launch, I can shed some light on what we are planning pre-launch or at the very least, with our Day Zero update. We’ve already patched the Beta based on internal THQ developer feedback a week before it has even gone live to the public!

For Day Zero, we’re already making improvements to the game based on early feedback to ensure fans get the best possible experience.  In addition, within the first week after launch, we’ll be adding two additional multiplayer maps to the game.

As for post-launch plans, we are extremely interested in working with Microsoft to offer several types of free and premium downloadable content through their Games for Windows - LIVE Marketplace. In fact, there may even be some DLC available during the first few weeks after the game’s released if everything goes to plan.

For long term support we’ve got planned scheduled patches and data updates through 2009 and beyond.


7) Anything else you would like to share with the Dawn of War II community?

DOWII is a blast to play and has an incredible amount of depth that you’ll enjoy exploring for years to come. The initial release of Dawn of War II is just a starting point - it’s an evolving product that will undergo gradual updates and changes over the years that will continue to improve both the campaign and multiplayer experiences.

Relic’s dedication to supporting one of its games has never been stronger.
