Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II and expansions look like they are coming to Linux & SteamOS

Wow this I did not expect. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II and the expansions are showing signs that they will come over to Linux & SteamOS!

You can see the information from SteamDB here:

Quotelaunch/2/config/oslist: linux
launch/2/executable: DawnOfWarII.sh
launch/2/type: none

It also looks like Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - Retribution will come to Linux too, again thanks to SteamDB.

While I am not a massive fan of Warhammer I've actually seen this game be played by an old friend of mine, and it genuinely looked quite fun. I am also a sucker for real time strategy games, so it appeals to me!

I wonder if it will be a outsourced port, or if it's in-house, but only time will tell.

Something to remember though: Being on SteamDB doesn't mean it's confirmed, but it certainly looks like someone is working on them.
