Relic Entertainment has made it clear that they're very much interested in crafting a new entry in the Dawn of War series in conjunction with Games Workshop, should the pieces align.
Sega purchased Relic after THQ's bankruptcy, but it's still unclear exactly whether or not the rights to the Warhammer 40K license also made the move. "I'm still a bit fuzzy on that," game director Quinn Duffy told Eurogamer. "There were certain properties that were attached to the sale of Relic initially, which was Company of Heroes, but not all of Relic's initial IP was part of that initial sale package.
"Dawn of War, because it's a license and it's owned by Games Workshop, they have the opportunity to work that license with whoever they want. I would hope it would be us again. We had a great working relationship with Games Workshop. SEGA is establishing one now with the fantasy license for Creative Assembly," he explained, adding, "There's a strong possibility we'll all be working together again on Dawn of War."
