A fantastic new role-playing game is gaining huge popularity on Valve’s platform, soaring to the very top of the sales chart while earning rave reviews from users.
Owlcat Games has done it again with their latest release, Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, which has swiftly climbed to the peak of the Steam sales charts. Following their previous success with Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, Owlcat Games has established themselves as a premier creator of thrilling RPG experiences, initially gaining recognition with Pathfinder: Kingmaker and overcoming its early challenges to deliver a truly acclaimed game in Wrath of the Righteous.
After the triumph of Wrath of the Righteous, fans eagerly anticipated what Owlcat Games would conjure next. Their choice to delve into the Warhammer 40,000 universe and create an RPG centered on the role of a Rogue Trader has paid off remarkably well, drawing comparisons to the beloved style of games like Baldur’s Gate 3 and receiving glowing praise from players.
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader officially launched on December 6 for PC, and its popularity has been steadily rising since then, currently holding a strong position in fifth place among Steam’s Top Sellers list. Its success can be attributed to several factors: Owlcat Games’ established reputation among CRPG enthusiasts, the influence of Baldur’s Gate 3 on the genre, and, most importantly, the sheer quality of Rogue Trader as a standalone game.
In this turn-based RPG adventure set in the Koronus Expanse, players assume the role of a Rogue Trader, sanctioned by the Imperium of Man to explore uncharted regions of the galaxy. With an alignment system, a diverse cast of companions, and a customizable voidship, Rogue Trader seamlessly merges Games Workshop’s tabletop essence with the hallmark features fans have come to expect from Owlcat Games.
For fans of games like Baldur’s Gate 3 seeking a new, captivating experience, Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader presents a compelling choice. While it might not boast the same budget as other acclaimed titles, players are finding immense joy and satisfaction in this thrilling new RPG adventure.
