News New Warhammer 40k RPG Dark Heresy Revealed for PS5
Dark timeline
A new Warhammer 40k RPG has just been announced, and it focuses on the Dark Heresy side of the grim fantasy universe.

"Become an...
News Warhammer RPG Rogue Trader Completes 1 Million Transactions
Profit factor
Having dumped several dozen additional hours since our initial review (which, on reflection, seems harsh now but was reflective of our opinion at launch), we're pretty confident in saying that Owlcat's depiction of the Warhammer 40,000 universe in Rogue Trader is just completely unrivalled. However, a wordy, turn-based CRPG was never...
News Warhammer RPG Rogue Trader Gets Massive PS5 Patch Just in Time for Christmas
Abelard's been working extra hard
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader has received a surprisingly large patch ahead of the Christmas break; we'd expect something like this to accompany an expansion, and at least one DLC offering is still on the way.

News Tyranid Genestealers Detected in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader Expansion Void Shadows
Suffer not the xenos, the mutant, or the heretic to live
Released in any year other than 2023, Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader would have been the CRPG to beat; content-rich and masterfully written, it was unfortunately let down by an abundance of bugs and technical issues at launch. We can confirm first-hand that the game is in a much better place...

Is there any appetite for a deep, sci-fi roleplaying experience amongst the PlayStation faithful?

Review Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous Enhanced Edition (PS4) - A Roleplaying Renaissance
We live in a CRPG Golden Age
Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is the kind of game that can take over your life if you let it. Its intricate mechanics, engaging combat, and gritty narrative combine to create a heady experience, provided you're willing to put in the time to learn its specific eccentricities. It can be unwieldy, and its depth and...
