One of PS5’s Most Promising RPGs Adds to the Chaos of January 2027

Owlcat Games has set 28 January 2027 as the release date for Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy, adding another anticipated RPG to an already crowded PS5 release schedule. The game matters to fans of the studio’s previous Warhammer RPG, Rogue Trader, which the article praises for its characters, quests and attention to the setting.

Dark Heresy is described as a potential successor to Rogue Trader. It arrives alongside Stranger Than Heaven and Forza Horizon 6, with Fate/Extra Record and Until Dawn 2 also due on 28 January; Metro 2039 follows the next week. Other major games listed for the surrounding period include Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, Persona 4 Revival and Fable.
