US EditionThe Expanse Game Gets a Sad Release Date Update — and a Demo
Owlcat Games will launch a closed beta next month for The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, a third-person shooter set in iconic locations from the sci-fi series.
- Owlcat Games announced a Closed Beta for The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, launching on Xbox Series starting April 22, 2026. Founders purchasing the Miller Pack or Collector Edition gain early access to the upcoming action-RPG.
- Based on James Corey's sci-fi novels, the title is scheduled for Spring 2027 release. The game positions itself as a Mass Effect-style action-RPG exploring political struggles across Earth, Mars, and the asteroid belt.
- Players will experience a full mission from the game during the preview period. According to the developer, "Each mission in Osiris Reborn presents you with a choice, one that may entail large long-lasting consequences."
- Releasing the Beta a full year before launch gives Owlcat time to gather feedback and implement improvements. Early adopters will help the studio refine gameplay before the official Spring 2027 debut.
- The game aims to expand the Expanse universe with original stories rather than directly adapting the books. Gameplay features cover-based shooting reminiscent of Mass Effect across locations like Mars, Ceres, and Luna.
