Just a little over per week after the discharge of its first DLC, Void Shadows, Warhammer 40,000 RPG Rogue Dealer is on sale on Steam for its lowest worth so far: $30 for the sport by itself, or $39 for the bottom recreation plus a DLC season cross that features Void Shadows and future add-ons.
Whereas we have been cool on Rogue Dealer in our assessment at launch, Owlcat’s video games have tended to take a while after launch to essentially come into their very own. The corporate’s earlier RPG, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, turned my retroactive 2021 GOTY as soon as I performed it with a yr’s value of patches and DLC.
The studio’s tackle a 40K RPG casts you as a titular Rogue Dealer—sounds form of mercantile and mundane, however Rogue Merchants are principally Mass Impact Spectres given city-sized ships and a large remit to do no matter so long as it is within the Imperium’s greatest curiosity (or no one notices). Anticipate a Baldur’s Gate-ian CRPG within the a million hours of playtime vary, full with companion romances and a uniquely 40K type of ethical selection system. Your moral compass factors are principally Regular Good Man (boring), For The Emperor (humorous area fascist), and Void Psycho (now we’re talkin’).
The Void Shadows DLC introduces a brand new companion, a twin wielding murderer girl, and focuses on a void incursion into your treasured vessel—keep in mind, its colossal dimension principally signifies that Owlcat can hold opening up new areas onboard till it runs out of concepts.
The Steam sale on Rogue Dealer and its DLC cross runs by October 7. In the meantime, Owlcat has indicated that the sport’s subsequent DLC might be launched a while in Spring 2025.
