Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader
Description
Be sure to check Season Pass and Season Pass 2!
Explore the Koronus Expanse.
Begin your adventure aboard your personal, giant voidship, traveling between the multitude of systems within the Koronus Expanse, a barely charted and incredibly perilous region of space. Despite being considered a backwater of the Imperium, this region encompasses an enormous stretch of the void, filled with dangerous creatures and prodigious opportunities for profit and exploration.
Your decisions matter, Lord-Captain.
During quests show your subjects mercy or disdain, stay faithful to the God-Emperor, or consort with enemies of Mankind - your every decision and every act, even in character creation, is changing the in-game open world and those who inhabit it.
Gather your crew.
Rogue Traders never travel alone. Gather your retinue of righteous heroes, twisted psykers, and perfidious xenos. All of them are ready to follow you into the darkness between the stars. They will offer you counsel, aid you in battle, and allow you to amass ever more power. In return, you can guide them through their own personal journeys, changing their destinies forever.
Plan your actions carefully.
Slaughter the enemies of Mankind in a fully-fledged isometric turn-based tactical combat. Take advantage of cover, the environment, and careful positioning to overpower your enemies. When that is not enough - use your companion`s powerful abilities to turn the tide of battle and achieve victory even in the direst of situations. Our video game adaption of the classic Rogue Trader ruleset allows an enormous number of possibilities for you to explore.

4/5 stars
If you’re a 40K fan or just looking for a combat-heavy RPG outside of the normal fantasy fare, Rogue Trader will make a welcome addition to your library. It dives deeper into the setting and lore than any other video game to date, showing that it’s clearly a game by fans, for fans. Owlcat gave us multiple Pathfinder RPGs - hopefully, we’ll see more adventures in the Koronus Expanse in the future as well.

8.2/10
In the end, the moments of jank and the less-than-gripping combat didn’t diminish my experience or my desire to play. I still enjoyed leveling my character. I still enjoyed building my party, especially where skills were concerned. I was also impressed by the intuitive nature of skill checks. When making a check, the game will automatically select the character with the highest rank in that skill to carry out the check. It’s a small touch, but a nice one. Ultimately, this is an easy game to recommend if you like RPGs that put their narrative forward and build their characters in meaningful ways. It may not find a home in everyone’s collections, but it will be a shining star for fans of the setting who appreciate a narrative focus.

8/10
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader is an ultra crunchy, 130-hour space epic with excellent writing and combat, but unfortunately, also a lot of bugs.

Very Solid. But lacking Voice.
If you've played OwlCat's Pathfinder games you know what this is. However there are improvements. The game seems more performant and slick. It has far less bugs. It's more polished. The story, atmosphere, characters are all good and similar to their past games. The glaring change to me is how little voice acting there is. It's noticeably less than what was in WOTR.

Owlcat doing Owlcat things...
Well, to be straight, Owlcat has, in my opinion, only one good title, and it's Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Despite not being able to set some AI behaviors for your team, the RTwP mechanics are well implemented and the challenge is there. Then, WotR comes, and nothing was really improved. So they go for a TB mechanics, and it's so basic and unimaginative that it's almost as bad as the way they implemented it in both Pathfinder games. Story-wise, that's the same, Kingmaker was really interesting. Then, well, it's like they don't want to engage in something interesting and just accumulate tropes for both WotR and now Rogue Trader. So, if you enjoy the Warhammer world, you might enjoy it, but there's not much interesting things to read. As for the game overall, you'll have to wait for all their DLCs to come out before having a fully baked game. It's overprice for the quality of the game, the price being more a reflection of a too huge team of amateurish workers that seems unable to learn from their previous titles than a really well crafted world with an engaging story and fully operational game mechanics. Decisions matter seem to be the only focus of their team. But you have to be imaginative to stimulate the desire to replay a rather bland storytelling. I'm probably harsh with two stars, but three stars would be generous on the other hand. And being disappointed with WotR just made me chose two instead of three. Their games are long, so you really need to improve the storytelling for me to want to replay it. Kingmaker did well, WotR didn't, and Rogue Trader isn't appealing so far I'm not even sure I'll even finish it.

Great game with some outdated elements
The game is solid and I hope, that it will bring the WH40k lore to more people. It is buggy, that is true, but the developer has history of fixing buggy games so I won't review bomb it because of that. The bigger things, that in my eyes costs the game some review points is that the combat is slow and that there is a lot of reading, which might be off-putting for some

Everything I wanted in a 40K RT Game
If you're a 40K fan or are just curious about the setting, and want to immurse yourself in the life of one of the most interesting positions of The Imperium (A Rogue Trader) you really couldn't ask for much more. Sure, even I have encountered a few small hiccups here and there but nothing show stopping, and Owlcat has a phenominal track record of supporting their products. Phenominal writing, Immersive world, incredibly solid tactical combat, deep character build options.
