For those who are still waiting for a crumb of information regarding Mass Effect 5, it sometimes feels as though it will never arrive and BioWare is just giggling in the corner over our plight.
Well, who needs Mass Effect 5? The next best thing is just around the corner.
Developed by Owlcat Games and set in The Expanse universe, The Expanse: Osiris Reborn is an upcoming third-person action RPG with all of the sci-fi elements we know and love.
In this story, you are no hero, instead you are a merc caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. However, you will do whatever it takes to hold your crew together and with your choices affecting your every move, who knows? Maybe you will be known for your heroics one day.

In The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, you will take on the role of a Pinkwater Security mercenary who finds themselves locked in a deadly lockdown and soon drawn into a solar system-wide conspiracy.
You will have the option to create your very own captain - an Earther, Belter, or Martian - and even lead a crew of highly-intelligent misfits as you face escalating threats, political pressure and endless enemy onslaughts.
“By the 24th century, humanity has conquered the cosmos”, but in a solar system held together by fragile alliances, any move you make could topple society as you know it.
Your ship and crew will become your home as your relationships with them develop and shape the story as it progresses. However, trust is earned and not just given and so you will have to think about your friends every step of the way.
With dynamic third-person combat, the fractured world of The Expanse will see you explore iconic locations such as Ganymede, Ceres, Mars and Luna as you talk to the locals, uncover secrets, and even use your skills in order to influence what happens next.
The Expanse: Osiris Reborn has not yet received an official release date but it seems as though this is the sci-fi RPG to keep your eye on and even add to your wishlist right now over on Steam.
