Owlcat Games undertook to make four games at once and told us what to expect – Baldur’s Gate 4 is not among them

Owlcat Games studio, known for Pathfinder: Kingmaker, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous and Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, held a question and answer session for bloggers, where they talked about current projects and immediate plans.

The content of the meeting was conveyed by YouTuber Slandered Gaming. According to him, none of the four games in development at Owlcat are Pathfinder, Starfinder, World of Darkness, Dungeons & Dragons (including Icewind Dale), Star Wars or Rifts.

All four future Owlcat projects belong to existing franchises (which ones are not specified). However, the studio is also thinking about developing games based on its intellectual property.

Warhammer 40,000 was not on the list of franchises that Owlcat is not currently working on

One of the games (a party RPG) is being created on Unreal Engine 5, has a much larger budget and will be noticeably more cinematic than Owlcat’s previous works. Old school isometric RPGs on Unity will also be available.

The studio also plans to provide all of its future projects with full voice acting, without sacrificing the scope or quality of the Owlcat script that users are accustomed to.

The Owlcat community manager, in a discussion of a session on the Reddit forum, said that the studio is potentially interested in releasing remasters of its old games, but not in the near future (in three years at least).

Owlcat’s latest game is Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, released last December. The studio is currently preparing the first of two story expansions, Void Shadows, for release on September 24th.
