While many studios still tread carefully around story-heavy RPGs, Owlcat Games stepped into the spotlight at the Future Games Showcase with a surprise reveal: The Expanse: Osiris Reborn. This isn’t just another sci-fi adventure — it’s an ambitious, choice-driven journey across a fractured solar system.
Players will take on the role of a customizable captain, choosing a background from Earth, Mars, or the Asteroid Belt. At your command is the most advanced starship in human history, a loyal (but opinionated) crew, and a solar system teetering on the edge of conflict. Your decisions — moral, political, and personal — will shape not only your story, but also the relationships you build and the power dynamics of the factions vying for control of space.
Owlcat makes no secret of its inspiration: Mass Effect. And it shows. Expect tactical third-person combat, dialogue that drives the story forward, complex character dynamics, and a world built with rich detail and grounded realism.
Creative Director Alexander Mishulin explains:
“The Expanse gives us everything we need — layered politics, morally complex characters, and a vast setting for telling mature stories. It’s the perfect universe to bring our sci-fi RPG dreams to life.”
There’s no official release date yet, but Owlcat has confirmed that Osiris Reborn is coming to PC (Steam, Epic Games Store, GOG), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
If you’ve ever fallen in love with Mass Effect, or longed for a game where you shape your own fate among the stars — Osiris Reborn might just be your next great voyage.
