Exodus is an upcoming science fiction role-playing game developed by Archetype Entertainment, a studio founded by former BioWare developers James Ohlen, Chad Robertson, and Drew Karpyshyn, and published by Wizards of the Coast. The game is set in the far future within the Omega Centauri cluster and has themes of exploration, survival, and moral complexity. It is the first game to be developed by Archetype Entertainment since its founding in 2019.
The game gained significant attention following its reveal at The Game Awards in December 2023, particularly due to the involvement of Academy Award-winning actor and Interstellar lead Matthew McConaughey, who voices character C.C. Orlev. The game focuses on time dilation due to ultrarelativistic travel and its ramifications pertaining to interpersonal interactions, technological advancement, and other subjects.
Exodus is part of Hasbro’s broader initiative to expand its footprint in the video game industry, alongside projects tied to other popular franchises such as G.I. Joe and Dungeons & Dragons. The game’s universe has also been expanded through supplemental media, including a novel titled Exodus: The Archimedes Engine by Peter F. Hamilton, and an actual play series called Star Heist: An Exodus Story, designed to showcase the game’s lore and setting.
Exodus is set to release for PlayStation 5, Windows and Xbox Series X/S. Though no official release date has been announced, the game is expected to launch in Q1/Q2 2027.
