Owlcat Games has set a January 28, 2027 release for its tactical role-playing sequel Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S. A Switch 2 release date will be announced later. The game follows Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader and casts players as an Inquisitor who hunts heretics and purges dark influences. Eurogamer reported that developer Owlcat has apparently overhauled many of the systems underpinning the adventure. A beta offering a complete first Act is available to those who buy a Founders edition and will end on January 7, when Owlcat prepares the game for launch. Separately, Eurogamer reported that Owlcat is making a substantially different RPG based on the Expanse license, more closely inspired by Mass Effect, which recently recruited former Dragon Age writer David Gaider.
