Saints Row veterans join development of Clockwork Revolution

A group of former Volition developers, following the closure of the studio last year and the underwhelming reception of its Saints Row reboot, have teamed up to create an exciting new steampunk RPG. Enter Shapeshifter Games, a fresh studio founded by these industry veterans. The news was confirmed through LinkedIn profiles of the employees (thanks TechRaptor!), with Shapeshifter Games already hard at work on their inaugural project.
What’s even more exciting is that Shapeshifter Games has partnered with a top publisher to bring their vision to life. According to a LinkedIn post by the studio, they are now a co-development studio, collaborating with this publisher on their next great IP. And guess who that publisher is? It’s none other than inXile Entertainment, the talented team behind titles like Wasteland 3.
🔥 Breaking News: inXile Entertainment has announced its partnership with Shapeshifter Games to work on Clockwork Revolution, the studio’s highly anticipated steampunk RPG.
So, what can we expect from Clockwork Revolution? Well, the game was first revealed during an Xbox Games Showcase event last summer, and its visual style immediately caught the attention of gamers. It drew comparisons to the beloved BioShock Infinite, with its stunning aesthetics and intricate steampunk world. However, Xbox was quick to clarify that any similarities were purely unintentional. Clockwork Revolution is its own unique experience, inspired by games like Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines.
👉 Fun Fact: Clockwork Revolution’s director has cited Arcanum and Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines as major influences on the game’s development.
