The action game Exodus received a lengthy gameplay video with developer commentary
The creators of the sci-fi action title Exodus (2027) rolled out a 19-minute gameplay clip with dev commentary during the Future Games Show. Expect lots of hands-on footage mixed with the usual developer asides — not a featurette, more like a window into how the game plays.
Key points from the demo:
- A desperate hunt for alien tech drives the plot: your home is being eaten away by the "Decay" and the narrative revolves around trying to stop that.
- The main char. is customisable; relationships with companions (some NPC comp. have strong opinions) shape how the trip unfolds.
- Each companion arrives with distinct mannerisms and abilities — useful in different situations, sometimes complementary, sometimes at odds.
- Between dangerous ops you return to a safe hub to meet new comp., gear up, and plan the next run.
- Ancient machines can be interfaced with to unlock new powers for the protagonist.
The footage mixes spoken scenes with selectable replies, sustained combat sequences (you can push in guns-blazing or try to slip by unseen), and a number of directed cutscenes. The devs also walked through environments that swung from clinical, futuristic corridors to the protagonist’s quiet hometown and then out to a windswept rocky planet — visual tone shifts that felt deliberate rather than decorative.
The team says the game is in late-stage development; more info should arrive soon. Exodus is slated to arrive in early 2027 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series. The project is run by several BioWare veterans, among them Drew Karpyshyn (Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic).
