Warhammer 40K’s Highly Anticipated RPG Sets 2027 Release Date
Warhammer 40K: Dark Heresy, the franchise’s next CRPG, finally has a release date and it’s sooner than you'd think.
Owlcat Games, the developer and publisher behind Warhammer 40K: Dark Heresy, has confirmed the release date for their highly anticipated RPG. The game, set in the 41st Millennium, will be available on January 28, 2027, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Windows PC. However, players on Nintendo Switch 2 will have to wait for a later release date.
The studio also announced the end of the ongoing beta for Dark Heresy, which will conclude on January 7. Pre-orders for the game's Founder's Packs are open until early January, offering special in-game items and perks. Dark Heresy shares similarities with its predecessor, Rogue Trader, in terms of CRPG aesthetics and turn-based combat.
The game will feature a party-based system, allowing players to recruit a diverse roster of companions, including abhumans, psykers, xenos, and humans. The game's mechanics include a more intricate morale system and a detective focus, encouraging players to uncover clues and analyze information.
