Developer Archetype Entertainment has revealed the second companion for upcoming sci-fi RPG Exodus.
Exodus a Sci-fi RPG from Ex-Mass Effect Devs Reveals Second Companion
The studio Archetype has revealed another companion for the sci-fi RPG Exodus. The ex-Mass Effect developers are ready to show a bit more of the narrative-driven space-faring game. This time we’re introduced to the “blunt” weapons expert who uses her humour to cover their “deep-seated sense of loss”.
Elise Charroux – New Companion Revealed
Elise may act like nothing touches her as “the muscle you want by your side across the Cluster” according to the official website. However, she also has a deeper emotional side that’s trying to counter the loss of Earth. This character has some memory of the world and is desperately trying to find out the meanings behind the remnants of memories she clings to.
Elise Charroux is one of the five companions players will meet in Exodus. Previously the studio revealed Tom Vargas, a charming character that has a chequered past. Archetype still has three others to reveal but so far each are interesting in their own way.

Mass Exodus
In case you missed it, Exodus is a new sci-fi RPG from Archetype Entertainment, a studio made up of former developers of Baldur’s Gate, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, and Mass Effect. The game was unveiled in 2023 during The Game Awards. The game follows a crew as they travel through space and time. Travelling through lightspeed can mean skipping decades in human years. Expect alien weapons, companions and a deep progression system.
We already know the game will have multiple endings that won’t just space years, but “decades and even centuries”. Player choices will impact the outcome of the narrative, which sounds to be emotionally gripping with possible loss that comes with Time Dilation.
The concept of Time Dilation is a fascinating idea that is reminiscent of the movie Interstellar. Coincidentally Matthew McConaughey is in both Exodus and Interstellar, and this is his debut in a video game, which he was very excited about at the Game Awards.
Exodus will be coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
