According to a recent article by Fred Dutton over at eurogamer.net, the upcoming DLC – which is due to arrive on April 6th – will bring 12 new achievements to The Last Stand (the real-time strategy/RPG game’s multiplayer survival mode), with each one bringing a new piece of kit.

The great thing about the upcoming DLC is the fact that it won’t even cost you a penny!! The Relic Entertainment-developed stand-alone expansion, which is in fact the second stand-alone expansion for the Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II game, was only released earlier this month.

Eurogamer’s Al Bickham reviewed the Dawn of War II – Retribution game recently, and gave it an impressive 8 out of 10. Al said that although the tight, narrative flow of the Chaos Rising expansion was missing from Retribution, it has been replaced with enormous diversity.

Are you a fan of the Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II game and standalone expansions? If so, will you be downloading the new downloadable content?

Stephany Nunneley over at vg247.com reports that the Collector’s Edition of Dawn of War II – Retribution – which will set you back $39.99 – will provide players with six race art cards, a poster and access to all of the bonus Wargear that is available for each of the six playable races within the game.

Unfortunately, the Collector’s Edition will only be available to gamers in North America via the THQ store. However, if you prefer a particular race allegiance, you can pre-order one of the six race packs that are available. These will set you back $29.99 (the same price as the standard game).

Each pack will come with four unique ability and Wargear items, which players will be able to use during the single-player campaign mode. Players can purchase the Ork Race Pack exclusively through Steam, and the Tyranid Race Pack exclusively via the THQ store.

In the meantime, the imperial Guard, Eldar, Chaos Space and Space Marine Race Packs will be available to pre-order through other digital distribution websites and other outlets. You can find a trailer for the upcoming game via a previous article by Mike Jackson over at computerandvideogames.com.
