Initial version (2026-06-04)
The Necrons are one of the four launch factions in **Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV**. They are ancient, deathless beings who slowly awaken to the unwelcome intrusion on Planet Kronus and move to reclaim the world as their own.
As an awakening force, the Necrons enter the conflict not as newcomers but as something that was already there, stirring from a long dormancy in response to the war erupting around them. Their broad identity rests on being ancient and deathless, a faction that endures and rises again to drive intruders from a planet it considers its own.
Like every faction, the Necrons have their own full Campaign that feeds into the game's overarching story. Beyond the awakening premise and their drive to reclaim Kronus, little about the Necrons has been detailed publicly so far. More information about their units and playstyle is expected closer to launch.
