AI summary of the reporting below · Updated · How we work

Owlcat Games has slated its next role-playing title, Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy, for release on January 28. The game will arrive simultaneously on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S|X, and PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store, accompanied by a newly released trailer. [1][2]

Dark Heresy shifts Owlcat away from its traditional rulership fantasies and light management systems toward in-depth Inquisition investigations and case-closing mechanics. The game previously ran an Open Alpha in December 2025 and entered beta testing in May 2026. Players can still enter the beta exclusively on Steam by pre-ordering or picking up a Founder's Pack, Developer's Digital Pack, or Collector's Edition. [1][2]

The release builds on Owlcat's growing slate as the Cyprus-based studio continues to juggle major projects with an expanded team. Alongside wrapping up Rogue Trader with its final add-on, Processional of the Damned, on December 8, the developer is also producing the sci-fi shooter RPG The Expanse: Osiris Reborn. [1][2]

Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader follow-up Dark Heresy will launch at the end of January

Owlcat has released a new trailer for its coming Warhammer 40K RPG, Dark Heresy. The inquisition and investigation-focused RPG is now slated for a January 28 launch. We've loved what we've seen of the game so far: Its focus on investigating heresy and closing cases represents something genuinely novel for Owlcat, which until now has focused on fantasies of rulership (with lite 4x/management gameplay) and quite good (and often very challenging) tactical battles.
