At the New Game + Showcase on January 8, 2026, Owlcat Games shared details about their new turn-based RPG Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy. Players will take on the role of an Inquisition adept investigating heresy in the grim Calixis sector. The project promises to be a deep genre development for the studio.

Developers announced a completely revamped mechanic—from combat systems and leveling to a new morality system. The focus will be on variety: multiple ways to interact with the world, alternatives to direct combat, and the ability to influence a reactive, well-crafted story. A key feature will be an extensive investigation system, allowing players to feel like a true inquisitor.
