Owlcat Games has officially confirmed The Expanse is returning as a new adaptation, this time as a sci-fi action RPG titled Osiris Reborn, arriving in 2027. More than four years after the television series concluded, the project marks the property's return to the screen in a different medium. The developer has emphasized player agency as a core mechanic, with choices designed to ripple across the game's scope - influencing individual stations, faction relationships, and companion arcs throughout the campaign.
This represents a significant pivot for the franchise, shifting from serialized television storytelling to an interactive format where player decisions carry meaningful long-term weight. Owlcat's focus on consequential choice suggests an approach that treats the game's narrative as responsive rather than linear.
- Owlcat Games is developing an action RPG adaptation four years after the TV series ended, targeting a 2027 release.
- Player decisions will have cascading effects on stations, faction standing, and companion storylines rather than isolated story beats.
- The adaptation extends The Expanse universe through interactive gameplay rather than traditional episodic format.
