Developers Owlcat Games announced that the release, originally scheduled for September, will now take place in December 2026. The delay, as stated in their official update, was necessary to ensure that the expansion meets the quality that players expect.<\/p>\n<p>#### Introduction of Stella: The New Companion<\/p>\n<p>At the heart of this expansion is Stella, a unique character described as an &#8220;unsanctioned psyker&#8221; and perceived as a miraculous figure sent by the Emperor. Stella&#8217;s character design is striking, with a bio that captures her eerie essence: &#8220;Her eyes bleed, and the cracks of her cold porcelain skin haemorrhage when she becomes a conduit of His will.&#8221; Raised by the Ecclesiarchy, she was molded into a weapon, but her status as an unsanctioned psyker adds complexity to her role. Players will have the choice to either harness her powers, attempt to save her from her fate, or embrace her inherent madness.<\/p>\n<p>#### Refunds and Season Pass Details<\/p>\n<p>In light of the delay, Owlcat has initiated a refund process for players who purchased the Season Pass 2. It&#8217;s important to note that opting for a refund will remove access to both *Processional of the Damned* and the Infinite Museion DLC from the user&#8217;s account, potentially affecting any existing save files that utilized the Infinite Museion content. However, the Appearance Pack from Season Pass 2 will be made free and integrated into the base game, ensuring that it won&#8217;t disrupt players&#8217; progress.<\/p>\n<p>#### New Features and Content<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the introduction of Stella, *Processional of the Damned* promises new gameplay dynamics, including a new archetype focused on bludgeoning weapons, which enhances the zealot character class. Additionally, a new feature called &#8220;Madness&#8221; will influence all companions in the game. Players will also face new adversaries drawn from the Arch Enemy and Aeladari ranks, adding a layer of challenge as they navigate the expanded narrative.<\/p>\n<p>With the promise of rich storytelling and character development, *Processional of the Damned* aims to conclude Rogue Trader&#8217;s storyline on a high note, providing existing players with fresh content while inviting new players into the immersive universe of Warhammer 40,000.<\/p>\n<p>For more detailed insights on *Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader*, you can view the [developer&#8217;s blog](https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/news\/app\/2186680\/view\/713412222387224795?l=english) and follow the game updates as the December release approaches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"media_block\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/final-dlc-for-warhammer-40000-rogue-trader-set-for-december-release-featuring-an-unsanctioned-psyker-companion-with-blood-tears.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gaitgames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/final-dlc-for-warhammer-40000-rogue-trader-set-for-december-release-featuring-an-unsanctioned-psyker-companion-with-blood-tears.jpg\" class=\"media_thumbnail\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rockpapershotgun.com\/games\/warhammer-40000-rogue-trader\">Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader<\/a>&#8216;s story-concluding final DLC has been pushed back to December, developers Owlcat have announced.
