Mass Effect Veterans Launch The Eventide, a New Sci-Fi RPG

A group of ex-BioWare developers, many of whom spent over two decades working on beloved RPGs like Mass Effect, have announced a brand-new science fiction RPG called The Eventide. The team describes the project as carrying forward the core "principles" of the RPG genre that shaped their careers, while venturing into fresh creative territory. Drawing comparisons to a mix of Dispatch and The X-Files, the game promises a heartfelt, focused experience rooted in the passion that defined their time at one of the industry's most storied studios.

Speaking about the project, the developers framed The Eventide as a deliberate creative risk, one driven by a desire to make something personal and purposeful rather than a large-scale AAA production. After spending the bulk of their careers building massive, sprawling universes for others, these veterans are now channeling that expertise into a tighter, more intimate vision entirely their own.
