Owlcat Games, the studio known for Pathfinder: Kingmaker, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous and Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, held a Q&A session for bloggers, where they talked about their current projects and upcoming plans.

Meeting Contents handed over 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 exactly is not specified). The studio is also thinking about developing games based on its own intellectual property.
Warhammer 40,000 was not on the list of franchises Owlcat is not currently working on
One of the games (a party RPG) is being made on Unreal Engine 5, has a much bigger budget, and will be noticeably more cinematic than Owlcat’s previous work. There will also be old-school isometric RPGs on Unity.
The studio also plans to provide all of its future projects with full voice acting, without sacrificing the scale or quality of the Owlcat writing that users have come to expect.
Owlcat Community Manager in a Reddit forum discussion about the session let it slipthat the studio is potentially interested in releasing remasters of its old games, but not in the near future (at least three years).
Owlcat’s latest game is Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader, which came out last December. The studio is currently preparing the first of two story expansions, Void Shadows, for release on September 24.
