Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader Gameplay

Image

Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader centers around a turn-based tactical combat gameplay that makes use of a cover system and the abilities of the player’s six party members, akin to developer Owlcat’s previous Pathfinder titles and even other games like Fallout Tactics and Wasteland.

There are tons of customization options for characters, such as abilities, classes, subclasses, weapons, equipment, and more. This robust system lets players create a diverse range of character builds to optimize and experiment with, all according to their playstyle.

Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader Story Plot

Image

Players step into the shoes of a Rogue Trader, a high position of authority in the Imperium of Man that grants the freedom to explore the uncharted territories of the Warhammer 40K universe. Players must gather their crew of psykers, marksmen, and warriors to travel through the vast and perilous Koronus Expanse to explore and seek profit for the Imperium.

The choices players make affect the narrative. As their station grants, Rogue Traders have so many choices, with destroying a planet or even saving one’s inhabitants among the few that one can take. Central to these choices is loyalty: will the Rogue Trader remain faithful to the God-Emperor, or will they ally with the enemies of Mankind?
