Stepping into the role of a Pinkwater Security mercenary means facing the consequences of survival on a fractured space station—where every decision could mean life or death.

The Expanse: Osiris Reborn, an action RPG rooted in the universe of The Expanse, is set to offer players their first taste of its dynamic combat and zero-gravity movement during a closed beta launch. Starting April 22, participants who have secured either the Collector’s Edition or Miller’s Pack will be able to experience the game’s core mechanics before its official release in spring 2027.

Unlike previous entries in The Expanse universe, this game shifts focus from the familiar narrative of Holdfast to a new story centered on the aftermath of Eros. Players will assemble their own team of mercenaries, engaging in tactical third-person combat while navigating the challenges of life aboard a remote space station. The beta will allow for early interaction with dialogue options and environment-based gameplay, providing developers with valuable feedback ahead of the full launch.

The Expanse: Osiris Reborn Offers Early Glimpse of Space Station Survival

The closed beta is designed to run on Steam, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5, with performance optimized for these platforms. However, since it represents a work-in-progress build, expectations should be managed accordingly—what players see now may not reflect the final polished experience.

Beyond the beta, The Expanse: Osiris Reborn is slated for a multi-platform launch across PC (via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG) and consoles. A Day 1 availability on Xbox Game Pass is confirmed, ensuring immediate access for subscribers. While the exact release window remains fixed for spring 2027, no additional details have been provided regarding pricing or regional availability.

For those eager to dive in, the beta offers a rare opportunity to test the game’s mechanics before its official debut. Whether it’s the weightless movement, the strategic depth of team-building, or the narrative choices that shape the experience, this early access could set the stage for how Osiris Reborn redefines survival in space.
