Owlcat Games confirmed that Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy will launch on January 28, 2027, for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. The CRPG follows Rogue Trader and casts players as an Inquisitor hunting heretics across the Calixis sector.
Players start as lowly acolytes and recruit companions with distinct abilities. The roster includes abhumans like Cogg, Psykers like Saro, Pariahs like Discordance, and xenos including the Aeldari Corsair Laarthyr and Kroot Ra'akhti. Each companion offers unique battlefield skills and advice for investigations.
Owlcat Games stated that Inquisitors can choose how to handle tasks, with each decision carrying consequences for the journey. The game is also coming to Switch 2 at an unannounced date.
