Exodus, the new AAA sci-fi RPG from the industry veterans at Archetype Entertainment, was officially announced at The Game Awards last year and has been steadily teasing new details about its story and setting ever since. Today, the devs have published a new trailer introducing us to Matthew McConaughey's character and a massive interstellar threat.
A character named C. C. Orlev narrates the new trailer, and while the devs don't straight-up confirm this is McConaughey, there's no mistaking that voice given that we already know he's in the game. He describes a threat lurking in the darkness between the stars called the Mara-Yama. These creatures take the form of what I can only describe as planet-sized fleshy masses, seeking out tormented minds to add to their collective body horror. The trailer goes full Cronenberg at a massive scale, with the Mara-Yama reaching out an arm made up of distorted individual bodies to embrace a passing starship.
