Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV – Closed Beta – Developer Message

Summary

Hi everyone,

I'm dropping in on behalf of the team to share how thankful we are after such an incredible last week!

Press previews landed on dozens of our favourite sites, content creators uploaded hundreds of hours of gameplay, we dropped our biggest trailer to date, and you all showed up in the comments with amazing reactions, questions, and energy. We have been blown away!

And on top of all of that: The Closed Beta. Last week’s five-day playtest was our biggest to date and, thanks to all of you storming the gates, it completely exceeded our expectations. You more than doubled the participation we expected with 80% returning for multiple sessions.

We now have thousands of survey responses filled with encouraging and useful feedback as we enter our last month of development before launch. There is always more to do, but we're confident that we are on track to deliver you a Dawn of War worth waiting for!

We always knew we wanted to build this game with you. To see that vision realised all the way from last year's Closed Alpha tests until now is very rewarding. Even if you haven't made it into a playtest, your comments, questions, and reactions have been invaluable and are super motivating for the team that worked for almost six years to make the best Dawn of War we can.

So, one month to go and plenty left to share with you. Painter fans, we see you. You'll get a closer look very soon. And what about The Last Stand? Stay tuned...
