Developer Owlcat Games took to Steam to announce an impressive milestone: turn-based RPG Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader sold over 1 million copies, sending countless Lord-Captains into the Koronus Expanse.
“To be the paragon of Humanity, unbroken by adversity, to walk bravely first into darkness, to unite and reclaim what was lost, to triumph over nightmares untold, to hold boldly the reins of fate, to walk steadily the road of thorns, through pain to greatness.
This was no easy task, but you have succeeded, Lord Captains. The Emperor protects!”
If you have stopped playing shortly after the release of the game, you will barely recognize it in its current form. Just last month, Rogue Trader received major massive update 1.3 and the subsequent patch 1.3.1.6, introducing new content, redesigning encounters and conviction points availability, adding new equipment, character models, and much more. Additionally, the game is in for the second premium DLC Lex Imperialis, slated to arrive in Spring 2025.
Much like the already available Void Shadows DLC, it promises to introduce about 15 hours of extra gameplay and a new companion — a member of the Adeptus Arbites. As the past of House von Valancius begins to present itself in a new light, the Rogue Trader faces difficult decisions that may affect the future of the entire Koronus Expanse.
