Upcoming Sci-fi RPG Exodus just dropped another prologue, titled ‘Just at the Edge of Hearing.
After reminding any Traveler that space is a dangerous place, Archetype Entertainment released another Traveler’s Story ahead of the launch of Exodus. The upcoming sci-fi RPG set among the stars has already detailed the powerful Celestials and the worlds they inhabit, but there are places even the Mara Yama don’t tread. Titled ‘Just at the Edge of Hearing,’ the latest narrative precursor to our own adventures follows an ill-fated human expedition and a seemingly innocuous world, ready for habitation.
For players that take control of a human Traveler, some worlds may be more than they seem. In this story, a perfectly placed planet lies abandoned for a reason, and it ends in a tragic discovery for the potential homestead. We’re not going to spoil this tale, but it sets the groundwork for some ingenious problems that you won’t be able to shoot your way around. Players picking the role o a Traveler are likely to explore a whole host of strange new environments across sectors of space. All this danger is aimed at helping humanity, whether it’s finding a home or stealing tech from the ancient Celestials, we’ll have to wait and see.
You can check out more about the wider Exodus universe, how the Archimedes Engines built local space, the ferocious Mara Yama, and everything about Humanity’s escape from a dying Earth.
