The Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader gameplay trailer has finally been released. Fans of the Warhammer 40K franchise have been waiting patiently for this moment, and it's finally here.
Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader was first revealed at Gamescom earlier this year. Ever since its announcement, Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader has been highly anticipated by fans of both the Warhammer 40K universe and strategy RPGs. Developed by Owlcat Games, the team behind the critically acclaimed Pathfinder: Kingmaker and Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, Rogue Trader is shaping up to be one of the most ambitious and exciting upcoming Warhammer games.
The newly released gameplay trailer for Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader has revealed a lot of information about the game. One of the most noticeable features of the trailer is the map reveal, which shows the ship moving around as well as several locations players can explore. The trailer suggests that the ship will be able to move freely, as opposed to Pathfinder maps where ship movement is restricted to specific dotted lines. The Rogue Trader gameplay trailer also suggests that Owlcat Games has made significant upgrades to the visuals since the initial announcement.
There are noticeably more details in this trailer as compared to the previous teaser of Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader, which suggests that the developers are making very good progress. The trailer also gave a glimpse of some new monsters and enemies, and it looks like the party size will be limited to 4 members; of course, this is only speculation at this point. The end of the video highlights the collector's edition, which includes a statue of Cassia Orsellio (one of the four navigators), a copy of the Warrant of Trade, a sticker pack, an art book, and a banner.
Overall, the trailer suggests that the game is coming along nicely and that many fans of Warhammer 40K will be pleased with the final product. Though the game doesn't have a release date yet, it is expected to be released at some point in 2023 and it will be available on Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store. Set in the dark and grim future of the 41st millennium, Rogue Trader will task players with leading a band of intrepid explorers as they attempt to carve out a fortune in the treacherous depths of space when it launches next year.
Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader will launch for PC in 2023.
