The Expanse: Osiris Reborn is an upcoming action RPG set in the scientifically grounded universe of The Expanse. Developers Owlcat Games are focusing on realism while crafting a space adventure that reflects the physics of the series without turning it into a space simulator. Unlike previous titles that may have embraced time management mechanics, this game will instead utilize cutscenes to depict the passage of time and life aboard a spaceship, ensuring that the narrative remains at the forefront. Players will see elements like the Juice being administered and realistic space travel dynamics but won’t control the ship themselves. The game is expected to launch in spring 2027 with a closed beta starting April 22.
