Clockwork Revolution steals the show at Xbox Games Showcase

InXile is shaping up to be one of Xbox's most exciting first-party studios. Following the initial reveal of Clockwork Revolution a couple of years ago, today we got a full gameplay trailer showcasing an incredibly deep action-RPG with time manipulation elements.

In Clockwork Revolution, we'll be playing as Morgan Vanette, a customizable player-character and member of the Rotten Row Hooligans gang, who discovers that the world they live in has been altered by the enigmatic Lady Ironwood. She’s unnaturally manipulated history through her use of time travel to bring herself immense power and wealth, while keeping the working class under heel. After discovering her method of traveling into the past, you’re thrust into an adventure across time to turn back the clock, and right Ironwood’s wrongs—however you see fit.

In a subsequent interview published on the Xbox website, InXile founder, Brian Fargo and a few other key members of the development team shared some more details on the game. The studio promises one of the most reactive game worlds ever made, with enough player agency to keep players coming back again and again to see all of the different possible outcomes.

Clockwork Revolution is available to wishlist now but does not yet have a release date. It will be one of the first games to release under Microsoft's new Play Anywhere initiative, meaning that moving forward, every first-party Xbox game will be ‘Play Anywhere' meaning you get access on Xbox and PC at no extra cost. I'm not sure why they weren't doing this already but better late than never.

KitGuru Says: The trailer for Clockwork Revolution blew me away. It might even be the best trailer of the show. Unfortunately, we have no idea when we'll be able to get our hands on it.
