The Expanse: Osiris Reborn is a Mass Effect-shaped rocket that could finally propel Owlcat into the RPG mainstream: "We’d been feeling a growing ambition to go bigger"

Owlcat Games pushes the RPG genre forward at every turn. By bringing the uncompromising depth of old-school CRPGs to the modern era, it has found success upon success. CRPG devotees consider Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous to be one of the genre's greatest offerings, while 2023's Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader captured the scope of Games Workshop's cutthroat universe with a then-unseen level of faithfulness and ambition.

For many fans, though, Owlcat's best is still to come. Upcoming CRPG Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy looks to build upon Rogue Trader in every way possible, while The Expanse: Osiris Reborn will see Owlcat venture into yet another beloved sci-fi setting – this time, in the form of a third-person action RPG where the player must navigate a galaxy poised to collapse around them.
