Exodus Gameplay Trailer Revealed

Exodus, the upcoming sci-fi RPG from Archetype Entertainment, has received a new gameplay trailer. Since being revealed at The Game Awards 2023, the team at Archetype have diligently been releasing lore info and teasers via videos, blog posts, and even a pair of novels by Peter F. Hamilton.

I felt slightly sleepy and was thinking about just going back to bed. I get a bit of a jolt from seeing some new Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound (which as an aside looks great and has a nice retro Castlevania feel to it) But after shouting at one another over some of the games that won some of the awards, the tiredness has taken over. "This is my story, not yours. You must let me finish telling it." That is until I spot behind Geoff Keighley, the stage is starting to fog up and the background has changed to some creepy woods. A tall dark cave with fog spilling out and a wreath hanging on a dead bush appear. Then Geoff ann...
