Developer Owlcat Games is back with an overview of new archetypes coming in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader – Void Shadows DLC. In it, the Lord Captain will come face to face with an Imperial Death Cult. A representative of the cult, Kibellah, will join your retinue as a companion.
However, a new character to tag along with you, new locations and a new storyline are not everything that the DLC has to offer. Rogue Traders will also get access to two new Archetypes: the first-tier archetype — the Bladedancer and the second-tier archetype — the Executioner. Both are primarily focused on attributes desirable for any melee combatant.
According to Owlcats, these new archetypes not only complement each other excellently, but also open up numerous lucrative synergies with existing character-build options. Check out the game’s Steam page for an in-depth look at what they offer.
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader – Void Shadows DLC is slated to arrive on September 24. The developers promise a new story, offering about 15 hours of adventures on board the von Valancius voidship. In addition to the new romanceable companion, Rogue Traders are in for new enemies as well. The malignant Genestealer Cult is infecting your crew, slowly twisting their faith in the Emperor to carry out their wretched designs. The DLC is fully integrated into the game’s main story.
In other news, Owlcat Games became a publisher and signed deals with two talented dev teams.
