Chris Avellone, known for his work on titles like Fallout: New Vegas and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, has recently joined Republic Games to collaborate on an ambitious new RPG. Founded by Adam Williams, previously of Quantic Dream, the studio aims to create a dark, mature fantasy RPG inspired by the "golden age of RPGs." Williams indicates that the game will feature a rich narrative filled with meaningful choices and endings, set in a world with a totalitarian regime and supernatural themes. Avellone expressed excitement about the project, noting the opportunity to contribute to its interactive storytelling

What can players expect from Republic Games' upcoming RPG?

Players can look forward to a deep, branching narrative with complex choices, combat, character creation, romance options, and recruitable companions in a richly crafted world.

Republic Games is aiming to revive the charm of classic RPGs while introducing innovative storytelling elements. This project arrives in a landscape where RPGs are evolving, and player agency is becoming increasingly significant. Avellone's experience is particularly relevant given the current trend that values narrative depth and player choices in modern gaming.
