For years, it was understood that Wasteland developer InXile Entertainment was working on a new IP. In 2020, it was reported the team got early hands on with Unreal Engine 5; presumed for the new title. And in 2021, Windows Central reported that the team’s new game – codenamed Project Cobalt – was a steampunk/victorian-inspired title.
Come later in 2023, InXile Entertainment & XBOX Game Studios officially announced Clockwork Revolution. The game proved to be a new open-world RPG rich with characters and its own witty demeanor that the world & cast is brimming with. It was later reported that prior developers of Saints Row also joined the development for Clockwork Revolution.
Now in 2026 at XBOX Games Showcase, it was confirmed that Clockwork Revolution is to release next year in 2027. Microsoft also verifies it will be a console exclusive as well for XBOX. You can watch the new trailer in the video below:
“You are Morgan Vanette and your look, your skills, and your choices can shape you throughout the game — who you’re seeing in the trailer is just one version, not the version. At the start of Clockwork Revolution, you’ll customize who Morgan is, and through your decisions during the game, who Morgan becomes,” the description for Clockwork Revolution shares.
“Guiding you through this world is Prentice, a flying automaton you meet very early in the game. She’s part observer, part companion, and will join you on your adventures across the timescape. She’s tied to how you end up with the Chronometer (the device that makes time travel possible) and becomes your guide through the branching realities you create. She’s got her own abilities and her own skill tree, and she’ll give you new ways to see and interact with the world.”
A overview for the game’s setting also reveals: “Avalon can be beautiful, but it isn’t a utopia. It runs on industry and ambition, and it stays polished up top by keeping its dirty hands underneath the table. From the ash-choked streets of the Tangle to the lavish promenades where the city pretends it’s something better — everything here has a cost, and the folks at the bottom usually pay for it.”
