Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy will let us recruit a space elf pirate and one of the holy psychics whose lives are nasty, brutish, and short
What fun!
Dark Heresy, an upcoming CRPG, is currently in beta and developers Owlcat are sharing progress updates every three months. Among these updates, community-voted customization, new companions, and daemonhosts have been announced. Two of these companions, Laarthyr Cairnareth and Saro, have been revealed. Laarthyr is an aeldari corsair from the Webway tunnels, boasting psychic powers that may aid or hinder your journey through Warpspace.
Saro, on the other hand, is a sanctioned psyker whose abilities have been put to use under rigorous testing for the God-Emperor. Both companions offer unique skills and perspectives, providing players with diverse gameplay options. The beta also revealed popular player choices such as a Noble Officer from a Hive World faction, tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus, and the highly sought-after melta charge item.
Owlcat assures fans that while their upcoming Expanse game will have a different style, Dark Heresy remains true to the hardcore RPG experience they are known for, giving players the opportunity to dive deeper into the world of Warhammer 40,000.
