No, The Expanse<\/em> hasn\u2019t suddenly landed a newly announced 2027 TV prequel, even if some headlines are pushing the line that the series is \u201cofficially returning\u201d with an epic six-part run<\/strong>. The mix-up seems to come from elsewhere. The franchise is still growing, just through games, comics, and books. That \u201csix-part prequel\u201d is The Expanse: A Telltale Series<\/a><\/em>, which came out in 2023 as a Camina Drummer prequel. Its six parts are the five main episodes, plus a bonus episode. The thing that appears to have set off the confusion is a new Limited Run Games physical edition for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5, priced at about \u00a340 and listed with a shipping window from January 1 to March 31, 2027, according to the Limited Run Games store listing.<\/p>\n

The real new 2027 release<\/strong> is The Expanse: Osiris Reborn<\/a><\/em> from Owlcat Games. It\u2019s a story-driven third-person action RPG scheduled for Q2 2027 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X\/S, with day-one Xbox Game Pass<\/a> support, according to Owlcat Games. The game is set between seasons 1 and 2 and follows a Pinkwater Security mercenary on Eros, again according to Owlcat Games. Reception around the franchise\u2019s recent game projects hasn\u2019t all looked the same, either. The Expanse: A Telltale Series<\/em> was generally well received. Early beta reaction to The Expanse: Osiris Reborn<\/em> has been more mixed.<\/p>\n\n

If you follow The Expanse<\/em> closely, this is the kind of correction you\u2019ll want in the right place, especially with a post-season 6 comic omnibus due in December 2026<\/strong>, The Complete Visual History<\/em> due in August 2027, and James S.A. Corey still continuing The Captive\u2019s War<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n

So if you\u2019re tracking what\u2019s next, you can play The Expanse: A Telltale Series<\/em> now, pre-order the physical edition through Limited Run Games, and keep an eye out for The Expanse: Osiris Reborn<\/em> on PC and consoles in 2027.<\/p>\n
