Developed for PC and console, no release date has yet been announced, the debut trailer features a reasonable amount of gameplay.  Already we can see something that looks, at least visually, akin to Owlcat Games&#8217; well-received Pathfinder games.   <\/p>\n<p><output class=\"article-video-container\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Owlcat&#8217;s RPG will see you take on the role of a Rogue Trader, a privateer with their own merchant empire and voidship to sail amongst the stars and warp.  In a journey through the unexplored Koronus Expanse, you&#8217;ll gather a party of companions to explore and do battle with.  Confirmed party members so far consist of a Space Marine, an Aeldari Ranger, and a Sister of Battle;  characters all drawn from the tabletop version of Warhammer 40k. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The grim darkness of the 41st millennium is a harsh place of unbound evil, untold sacrifices and large-scale threats and challenges that perfectly transitions into an exciting roleplaying narrative that allows an exceptional freedom of in-game choice for the player,&#8221; said Oleg Shpilchevsky, head of Owlcat Games.  &#8220;We endeavor to bring to the game everything that fans of the cRPG genre love and expect: fateful decisions, non-linear stories, strong and diverse companion cast together with addictive and complex gaming systems to master.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"object-feedback\"\/><output class=\"widget-container\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-862123036 slideshow-preview\">\n<p>Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader &#8211; Trailer Screenshots<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-862123036 images-container\"><button type=\"button\" aria-label=\"Open Slideshow\" class=\"jsx-862123036 hero-image\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-3681891219 aspect-ratio-container aspect-ratio-16-9\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3681891219 aspect-ratio-child\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/output><\/p>\n<p>While the trailer is mostly made up of an animated introduction to the world of Rogue Traders in the 41st millennium, the gameplay snippets give us a good idea of \u200b\u200bthe many locations and enemies our Rogue Trader retinue will encounter.  Aeldari, Drukhari, Chaos, and Necron elements can be seen throughout, suggesting that the scope of the storyline will take us across a large section of 40k lore. <\/p>\n<p>While no release date has been announced, pre-orders are already available via Founder&#8217;s Packs.  This will provide access to the alpha and beta versions of the game when they are made available.  This early access-style method of development and release is similar to how Owlcat released its previous game, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous.  The Founder&#8217;s Packs can be purchased from the Owlcat Games website.  <\/p>\n<p>For more Warhammer, check out the newly announced shooter Warhammer 40k: Boltgun, as well as everything revealed at Warhammer Skulls. <\/p>\n<p><em>Matt Purslow is IGN&#8217;s UK News and Features Editor. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Owlcat Games has announced Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, a classic-style RPG set in Games Workshop&#8217;s grimdark 41st millennium setting.
