Posted on by Leave a comment

Owlcat Games shared the Wishlist Goal campaign for Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy on Steam. Launched in order to add more community-driven bonuses to the upcoming CRPG, players can earn a series of rewards set across four tiers and tied to community wishlist milestones: from digital bonus materials to exclusive in-game content. The campaign will progress further as more players add the game to their Steam wishlists.

The stronger the community support, the more rewards that will be unlocked, with the full list of rewards including:

  • Tier 1 (800K Wishlists) – A previously unseen, high-quality digital book event wallpaper pack from Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy and an appearance customization bundle, including new hairstyles, tattoos, and augments, as decided by a community poll
  • Tier 2 (1M Wishlists) – New music for the servitor in Bastion Serpentis and exclusive armour, both of which are decided by the community
  • Tier 3 (1.25M Wishlists) – An ‘Ask Me Anything’ session with the developers, with the community being able to choose the two departments they’re most interested in speaking with, and new custom in-game character portraits to use
  • Tier 4 (1.5M Wishlists) – Mysterious rewards that are yet to be revealed!

Across the four tiers, Owlcat Games is putting its community at the forefront, allowing players to vote across specific rewards and help shape the game ahead of its upcoming release.

Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy will launch on Windows PC (Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store) and consoles (PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S).

Dark Heresy’s Forgotten Gods

Posted on by

dark heresy forgotten godsValatine Lewin was good. Few knew of her, but those who did ensured she always had work. She had been Faceless many times before, smuggling Eldar trinkets, silver devices of unknown origin, and even fresh Ork teef from battles along the Stygies Cluster. The Faceless Trade never ended; the voracious appetite for the outré and forbidden meant that there would always be people like her to whet it.

Fantasy Flight Games has announced Forgotten Gods, the first book-length adventure for Dark Heresy Second Edition!

A moment of unchecked heresy can damn millions of lives. Any Warhammer 40K fan knows that as fact. As an Acolyte of an Inquisitor, your job is to forestall this fate, holding off the eternal corruption of Chaos. You’ll investigate proscribed artifacts of deadly power and battle a cult whose heresies reach far into the Askellon sector’s past.

Mankind was not always such a powerful force in the galaxy. Long before the first humans achieved consciousness, ancient gods ruled the stars and spaces between them. In Forgotten Gods, your fears are about to be realised. A cult has hired the smugglers of the Faceless Trade to bring them forbidden artifacts, and they plot to use the power of these artifacts to reawaken a god from the time before Man. As a devoted servant of the Emperor, you cannot allow this heresy to occur.

Forgotten Gods is the first book-length adventure for Dark Heresy Second Edition, and shows off more of the Askellon Sector! The adventure continues the storyline begun in the Dark Heresy Core Rulebook, where the Dark Pursuits adventure started your investigations into the dangerous xenos artifacts that pollute Hive Desoleum.

You’ll be able to to continue developing your character if you’ve place the Dark Pursuits or Desolation of the Dead adventures, or you can play without have already experienced the previous adventures. Forgotten Gods also offers new options for Acolyte creation. Each of the three major locations explored in this book includes rules for using that location as an Acolyte’s home world, so new players can craft characters hailing from these vastly different parts of the Imperium. Alternatively, a player can use this information to create a new Acolyte should his existing character not survive their climatic adventures in Forgotten Gods!
