Owlcat Games has released a new update for Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader for PC and consoles. It fixes a “vast majority” of broken quests and cutscenes, which would block progression for players or only work when making specific choices. Several items and abilities that didn’t work have also been fixed, along with desync cases in co-op.
The update also optimizes console performance and fixes several crash cases while updating values for conviction, reputation and skill checks. On Xbox Series X/S, crashes related to memory issues have been fixed. The developer has also addressed memory leaks in the UI windows and lag in the final encounter for console players.
Check out some of the patch notes below and full details here (though beware of spoilers). A big patch is slated for January 2024 and will offer “more fixes for talents and items, balance and QoL improvements.” Stay tuned when it goes live.
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader is available for Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC. Check out our review of the PS5 version, which we awarded an 8 out of 10.
