Relic has yet to make an official press announcement about Dawn of War 3, which the company is indeed working on at the moment, but that hasn't prevented the studio's developers from talking about it.

In an interview with Eurogamer, Relic's James McDermott says that the studio is looking into the success it had with Dawn of War II and its expansion packs, and is intending to bring their customization much further than before.

"Looking at what we had real success with in Dawn of War II – Retribution, with the DLC, and with customization and building their armies and collecting being a part of what 40k fans really love, we want to make that a big part of DOW3," he said.

"With the 40k universe, the tagline is: there is only war. We want to give you that greater sense of the war. The battle. The war that rages eternal, and make that feel like that's really imposing and all around you, and you have your own personal, custom army in there."

Dawn of War 3 is expected to be a "next generation game," and may be announced at the upcoming gamescom or Eurogamer expos.
