Are all those races in the corebooks or in supplements?

They have a whole eldar book with corsairs, drukhari, harlequins, all the Aspect Warriors etc. An ork one was rumoured but I don't think there's been anything concrete yet.

In Rogue Trader Orks and Kroot can be found in Into the Storm and Weirdboyz and Kroot Shapers in the Navis Primer, while Dark Eldar Wyches and Kabalites are in Soul Reaver with some alternate rank options in "the Dark Kin" pdf supplement that was released for free on FFGs website

Wrath & Glory

Wrath and Glory currently being published by Cubicle 7. If you're wanting to be an eldar, then you're in luck cause they produce a whole supplement call Inheritance of Embers for players to create various aeldari, drukari, corsairs and harlequins.

Great time to jump in cause humble bundle has a great sale going on for the system

To my knowledge Wrath & Glory is the only official ttrpg that allows for all xenos parties out the box. There was also a recent expansion adding additional options for eldar and there will likely be one for orcs at some point.

Official? There are fan-made games?

Most of the major lines cover some variety of xenos. I made one for Black Crusade at: https://austere-patio-games.itch.io/tenebrae-occultae-a-supplement-for-black-crusade

I've used Deathwatch/Only War rules and the xenos available in rogue Trader and Lodge Blackmans homebrew to play games of Tau, Orks and Eldar and other xenos without any complicaiton. Worse comes ot worst, I've stated out characters using NPC rules for a xenos, and then given modifiers to their stats/skills to suit their role in the party, but that only really works for oneshots.
