Owlcat Games has dated Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy: January 28, 2027 on PC (Steam, GOG, Epic), PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, with Switch 2 later. Two dates matter if you are tempted now: the beta, open to all founders, closes on January 7, and Founder's Packs (from €39.99 on the official site on November 9) stay on sale until early January. Store prices for the standard version have not been shown yet. We would like to know how you are approaching it.

- Founder's Pack or launch: are you buying a pack now to play the beta before January 7, or waiting for the January 28 release and the store prices?
- Beta players: if you are already in the beta, what do you think of the investigations and the turn-based combat so far? Is it worth jumping in for only a few weeks?
- Rogue Trader veterans: after Owlcat's previous Warhammer 40,000 cRPG, what do you expect to be different in Dark Heresy?
- Companions: Epione Spes, Haymar Devos, Cogg the Ogryn, Ra'akhti the Kroot, the Aeldari Laarthyr Cairnareth, Saro the pyromancer... who do you want in your warband first, and would you recruit xenos at all as an Inquisitor?
- Platform: PC (Steam, GOG or Epic), PS5 or Xbox Series X|S, or are you waiting for Switch 2?
- Puritan or radical: will you play a by-the-book Inquisitor or one who sacrifices innocents to reach the truth?
Tell us your platform, whether you have a Founder's Pack and whether you played Rogue Trader.
