Owlcat Games Unveils More About Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy in New Trailer
Developers at Owlcat Games recently released a fresh trailer for their upcoming title, Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy, offering a concise look into what players can expect from the highly anticipated party RPG. This new footage gives fans a clearer picture of the game's setting, core mechanics, and the unique role they will undertake.
Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy is a party-based role-playing game directly inspired by the popular tabletop RPG of the same name. Unlike Owlcat's previous venture into the grimdark universe, Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, where players commanded a powerful Free Trader, this new title casts them in the shoes of an acolyte serving the Imperial Inquisition. Your mission is to combat the myriad enemies of humanity from the shadows, engaging in clandestine operations and uncovering insidious plots.
Throughout the game, players will explore the diverse and dangerous worlds of the Calixis Sector. This region faces grave threats, including the mysterious "Tyrant Star" and the treacherous Night Lords, a notorious legion of Chaos Space Marines. The rich lore of Warhammer 40,000 provides a compelling backdrop for a narrative where every decision carries significant weight.
A robust role-playing system will empower players to approach challenges in various ways. You'll have the freedom to choose your methods for completing objectives, interact with potential companions to build your team, and delve into complex detective mysteries. The choices made by players will have far-reaching consequences, affecting not only the future of individual planets but also the ultimate fate of the entire Calixis Sector.
Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy is currently in development for PC (available on Steam, GOG, and Epic Games Store), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. While anticipation builds, Owlcat Games has not yet announced a release date. In the meantime, the studio continues to support Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader with new content, works on the ambitious The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, and manages its own publishing endeavors, showcasing their commitment to complex, narrative-driven RPG experiences.
