Not only will the first DLC be released soon, but the game is now also playable on the Steam Deck. There’s also one last chance to get your hands on the exclusive Collector’s Edition
The new DLC “Void Shadows “
On August 8, 2024, the first DLC for Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader will be released under the name “Void Shadows”. This extensive additional content promises around 15 hours of gripping gameplay and takes players into the dark depths of their own Void Ship. Here they must stand their ground against a new, dangerous enemy that threatens to destroy the von Valancius dynasty from within.
The introduction of a new companion called Kibellah is particularly exciting. She is an assassin from a Death Cult and is fully integrated into the main campaign. Players can even enter into a romantic relationship with her. Kibellah plays a central role in the new story and supports the players in the fight against the threat of the Genestealer cult.
