The Expanse: Osiris Reborn has a new mission gameplay trailer that shows a rescue operation inside an abandoned asteroid mine occupied by pirates. Owlcat Games debuted the footage during the Golden Joystick Awards, highlighting player choice, companion tactics and zero-gravity combat.
The action RPG launches in spring 2027 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC through Steam, the Epic Games Store and GOG.
Choose to Rescue Teenagers or Leave Them Behind
The mission begins in a bar, where a patron asks the captain and crew to help two teenagers. Their attempt to impress the OPA by antagonizing space pirates has left them in need of rescue.
You can accept the request or prioritize your own mission and leave the teenagers to handle the situation themselves. Accepting sends your crew to an abandoned asteroid mine that the pirates have converted into a stronghold.
The setup presents the rescue as an optional responsibility rather than an order the captain must follow. It also gives the crew a chance to become important figures in someone else’s story through a decision made during an otherwise incidental encounter.
Companion Tactics and Zero-Gravity Shootouts
Inside the stronghold, the crew faces pirate opposition in shootouts that call for tactical decisions alongside aiming. Owlcat highlights the importance of relying on companions and adapting to zero-gravity fights.
The teenagers also have something to contribute. One of them possesses a swarm of nanobots, adding an unexpected element to the operation.
The footage focuses on this individual mission, showing how a conversation, a player decision, and a combat encounter connect within The Expanse: Osiris Reborn.
Brazilian Portuguese Subtitles Confirmed
Owlcat also announced Brazilian Portuguese subtitle support at launch. It joins the previously announced English, German, French, Spanish, Russian, and Simplified Chinese language options.
The Expanse: Osiris Reborn arrives in spring 2027 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC. You can wishlist the game on Steam ahead of release.
