RPG Designer Goes Missing After Crowdfunding Award-Winning Game

When it was first revealed earlier this year, we said that The Expanse: Osiris Reborn “looks a lot like a new Mass Effect.” Now, after having watched almost an hour of it in action at gamescom 2025, developer Owlcat Games has done nothing to change my mind.

The first hours of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 uncloak a slick action game, but a limited RPG

The first hours of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 uncloak a slick action game, but a limited RPG

I feel for Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2. If it was named something like Fang Bastard: The Punching Of The Many, the trailers wouldn’t have so many views, but those who’d watched them would probably be quite jazzed for that new bitey-talky game that looks a bit like Dishonored with more story branching.

But it was systematically delayed, then full-on suspended, before being resurrected …
