Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine breaching PC

THQ is bringing Darksiders to the PC in September, eight months after its console debut. PC gamers won't need to wait that long for THQ's next PC port, as the publisher today announced that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine will extend beyond consoles and suit up on the PC next year.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine is currently pegged to be released alongside its Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 cousins in "early" 2011. While the PC and console versions all have the same release window, THQ did not specify a simultaneous release.

The Vancouver-based Relic Entertainment development is creating Space Marine, and the PC endeavor comes as no surprise. The studio is famous for creating PC real-time-strategy series, including Homeworld Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War and Company of Heroes.
