Owlcat Games and Alcon Interactive announce The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, a third-person action/RPG in the setting of The Expanse, the science fiction television series. This is "coming soon" to PC and consoles, and there are listings for the Windows edition on the Epic Games Store, GOG.com, and Steam. The developer and talks of the inspiration it's drawing from the Mass Effect series, calling this its "flagship project" (hopefully not in the Hellgate: London sense), offering founders packs and a pricy Collector's Edition. The Announcement Trailer provides a first cinematic look, and the description has more:
The Expanse: Osiris Reborn is a story-driven sci-fi Action RPG. You play as a Pinkwater Security mercenary whose brief shore leave on the asteroid Eros spirals out of control. Trapped in a deadly lockdown and drawn into a solar system-wide conspiracy far beyond your control, you’ll have to adapt, survive, taking command of the most advanced ship in the whole of the solar system. Gather a crew and find your own path through the web of lies to leave your mark on the solar system.

Very disappointing. I was hoping that Owlcat would finally do something original for a change but a game based on a lame-ass NetfliX show is about as meh-worthy as it gets.
Troll attempt 3/10. Very poor showing from RogueSix, as both the show and the books are very highly regarded.

I'm also just started chapter 2 of Rogue Trader and vastly prefer it to BG3 so I'll be following this one closely!
