Female ogryn?

[Ballista]

Played the beta and I was surprised there weren't female options for the ogryn, I love being big, burely and dumb as anyone else. Just be nice to play it giant barberian gal style.

I don't don't know if it's planned content, it would reduce the odds of repeating voice actors on full ogryn teams.
Anyone know if the devs planned on exploring that in future?

It's not gonna happen

GW isn't ready to show Women Ogryn

[Sero]

There arent any female ogryns visible in any of the source material, they exist but noone has seen them.

but if no one has seen one do they really exist or are they just saying they do but they don't yet

i just want to be able to sleep for rest of my life's nights. i dont think my psyche can handle a female ogryn's appearence.

Games Workshop did not permit female Ogryns, anything not approved by Games Workshop will not appear in the game as they are license owners and Fatshark said during a stream they have to ask permission for anything added, therefore there will not be any.

To top it off, Games Workshop sent Matt Ward himself to oversee what Fatshark uses.

You know what? This matter was explicitly adressed by developers in the Ogryn Spotlight post:

"To date, only male Ogryns have been seen on the battlefields of the Moebian Domain. If an inquisitive soul is brave (or stupid) enough to inquire an Ogryn about such matters, it’s a toss-up whether they’d get an annoyed low rumble in response, or an over-sized fist to the face."

So thats all to it. Its a fictional setting, and they set the lore, so I dont see much more to discuss about this.

In the lore, Ogryns are not traditional mutants, they were not birthed but manufactured, more important: they have been discontinued.

The fact that they are in game is already far fetched I'm pretty sure Ogryn that fail at their task are destroyed

[Piss Blaster]

No one is ready for that

Matt Ward was fired eight years ago.

The Imperium will not conscript female Ogryn into military service, therefore you will not see female Ogryn on the battlefield.

what? where are you getting that from?

ogryns are abhumans, types of humans with a stable mutation (usually an adaptation to different environments) that continues across multiple generations, they aren't manufactured they're born normally

other abhumans include navigators and ratlings

They never existed. It's the same reason Fallout super mutants are androgynous. Magic!
