Due to arrive sometime in 2027, EXODUS looks like it might fit in with the Mass Effect hole in my life and the extended gameplay reveal looks very promising. This is another that was shown off during Summer Game Fest 2026 as part of the Future Games Show.

More about it: "EXODUS is a sci-fi action-adventure RPG where you become the Traveler—leading humanity’s fight for survival against the Celestials. Face our evolution 40,000 years in the future, explore extraordinary worlds, and confront time itself to shape the fate of generations."

This new footage is an extended look giving us nearly 20 minutes of different parts of the game with voice over guided by the Game Director, Chris King. Check it out below:

It doesn't just look a bit like Mass Effect, it has a certain amount of DNA from it, as multiple staffers at the developer
Archetype Entertainment were formerly at BioWare which has me all the more excited for it.

From the Steam page:

Forge a Legacy That Shapes Generations

  • Step forward into the role of Jun Aslan, a salvager turned Traveler—a renegade among the stars and hunter of ancient secrets.
  • Embark on interstellar missions to recover Celestial Remnants that may hold the key to humanity’s survival.
  • Return to a changed world, where time dilation has amplified your choices and reshaped the future of humanity.

Lead the Fight for Salvation

  • Engage in intense combat against monstrous creatures and constructs, rival human Dynasties, and the greatest threat of all: the Celestials.
  • Fuse Remnants with human tech to expand your arsenal and unleash devastating abilities through a Gauntlet only you can command.
  • Fight alongside powerful, highly adept companions whose strength, skill, and synergy turn the tide of every battle.

Discover Extraordinary Worlds and Companions

  • Explore a galaxy alive with awe and mystery, shaped by extraordinary worlds, unique beings, and the bonds you forge (or break) along the way.
  • Encounter the evolved descendants of humanity known as the Celestials, their bioengineered Changelings, and highly intelligent Awakened animals.
  • Lead a formidable crew across the stars —human and Awakened—driven by their own convictions and deadly in the fight ahead.

You may want to add that it is also a book series by Peter Hamilton. It's called EXODUS as well, with the first book being named The Archimedes Engine.

If i had just watched the Trailer, i would have guessed it's a DLC for Mass Effect Andromeda. The graphic style, the setting, the followers, combat etc... it just has 99% ME vibes.

Could be a good game, would be nice you could choose a female protagonist though.

"Mass Effect spiritual successor" is quite a mantle to wear. I hope it will work out

I'm afraid the game looks too similar to Mass Effect, and that could work against it.

It better not be WOKE.(becuase if it is - I am offended that I am not given an opportunity to be a choo-choo train and have romance with a dolphin)
I want to be insulted I want my morals to be questioned. I want adult entertainment. Not visual novel with "lived happily ever after" with extra pew pew steps.
Otherwise, it does look interesting, but interface does look blend.
