Following the release and enormous success of Baldur's Gate 3, the first cRPG with a triple-A budget, fans of the genre are now also wondering about a similar treatment for games like Pillars of Eternity 3.
Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader Is Out on December 7 for PC and Consoles
13.09.2023 - 17:31 / wccftech.com / Francesco De-Meo / Out On
Roleplaying games fans may be looking forward to ending a year of incredible releases with Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader.
Today, developer Owlcat Games (the same behind Pathfinder: Kingmaker and Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous) announced that the cRPG will be released on December 7 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X. The release date trailer also provides the first look at the last announced companion, the Drukhari Marazhai, a member of the Dark Elf race.
Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader provides an interesting spin on the Warhammer 40K universe, putting players in the shoes of the titular Rogue Trader, a ship captain who has been given a special Imperial mandate to explore the far reaches of space with greater autonomy than usual.
In this game, players will explore the Koronus Expanse and have the chance to remain faithful to the Emperor of Mankind or even betray his tenets by siding with his enemies.
Originally unveiled in June 2022, the game was playable for those who grabbed the Founder's Packs via the official website in Alpha and Beta tests. Francesco De Meo checked out the Beta build and enjoyed his time with the game:
While I couldn't spend a lot of time with the Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader beta, it is already clear from what I have experienced so far that Owlcat Games is putting every effort into its game to make it one to remember. How the story will hold up until the end remains to be seen, but so far, as someone with only passing knowledge of the universe created by Games Workshop, I can say that I am engrossed in it and can't wait to see what lies ahead.
Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader will also be the first Owlcat game to support co-op multiplayer, though many details are still to be revealed. Expect more coverage on the game shortly.

Quizzing Intel exec Sandra Rivera about generative AI and more
Intel threw a lot of information at us a couple of weeks ago at its Intel Innovation 2023 event in San Jose, California.

Even with its Warhammer 40K RPG coming in hot, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous' developer is cranking out yet another big DLC
Even in a post-Baldur's Gate 3 afterglow, I love Owlcat's 2021 CRPG epic, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. It's a game so good, I didn't mind replaying its opening act three times. Even as Owlcat gears up for its next major release, Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, the studio's still lining up Wrath of the Righteous' fifth DLC expansion.

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader is crunchy, brutal, and one to watch
When looking at the breadth of war games out there, the ones that inspire players to buy, paint, and field massive armies in skirmishes with each other, few names loom quite so large as Warhammer 40,000. But with Rogue Trader, Owlcat Games is giving the 40K universe a slightly different treatment. And to me, they look like the right studio to do it.
