Owlcat Games Unveils The Expanse: Osiris Reborn
Owlcat Games is about to take fans on a thrilling journey with their newly announced title, The Expanse: Osiris Reborn. This action-packed, narrative-driven RPG immerses players in the captivating universe of the acclaimed sci-fi series.
Familiar Faces and Original Characters Await!
Players will step into the shoes of a Pinkwater Security mercenary, trapped on the infamous Eros Station amidst a chaotic lockdown. Expect to encounter some familiar characters from the show, with a few actors reprising their roles—though Owlcat has yet to reveal who they are.
A Visionary Sci-Fi Adventure!
Creative Director Alexander Mishulin expressed the studio's excitement, noting, "We’ve long dreamed of crafting a sci-fi action RPG of this scale, and The Expanse offers the perfect backdrop for this vision. The universe is rich in realism and complexity, ideal for exploring mature, character-driven narratives where your choices truly matter."
Inspired by a Gaming Classic: Mass Effect!
Game Design Producer Yuliya Chernenko acknowledged that the original Mass Effect trilogy heavily inspired their approach. Chernenko reminisced, "It was iconic for gamers of the Xbox 360 era, and many of us played it during our formative years. We're building on that legacy to expand players’ expectations. Expect hard sci-fi rooted narratives, modern combat mechanics, and yes—romance!"
Your Captain, Your Choices!
Similar to Mass Effect, players can create their unique captain—choose between Earther, Martian, or Belter—and command a state-of-the-art ship. Assemble a crew whose backgrounds and motivations add depth to the story, while engaging in tactical third-person combat with dynamic cover mechanics and squad coordination.
Explore Iconic Locations!
Fans will be thrilled to rediscover iconic locales such as Ganymede, Ceres, Mars, and Luna. The game delivers a gripping narrative grounded in tension and consequence, entwined with the complex future of humanity among the stars.
Set in the Heart of the Action!
The Expanse: Osiris Reborn takes place during the first two-and-a-half seasons of the series, paralleling the major events from both the show and the books.
Stay Tuned for Release!
While a specific release date has yet to be announced, The Expanse: Osiris Reborn is set to land soon on platforms including Steam, Epic Games Store, GOG, Xbox Series X and S, and PlayStation 5. Owlcat is currently juggling multiple projects, including the exciting new Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy, but they assure us that The Expanse: Osiris Reborn is their "flagship project".
Independent Team, Maximum Quality!
Owlcat reassured fans that the team dedicated to The Expanse: Osiris Reborn operates separately from their other projects, ensuring that each endeavor maintains the highest quality standards.
