Over on Twitter, the studio's official Twitter account teased this mystery RPG in a job advertisement for the studio. Now, you can usually gauge where a game is at in development depending on what positions the studio is trying to fill, and right now outside the art department, it's not looking for much, especially in lead roles. This is not only a good sign for the game, but it may indicate it's out of pre-production. Unfortunately, we don't have any details on the game, just word that it's an RPG and that it's being made in Unreal Engine 5.

inXile Entertainment is known for its isometric and hardcore RPGs. What they aren't known for is making visual feasts. Some may think that it using the Unreal Engine 5 is a sign that this is changing, but this ignores the fact that Unreal Engine is highly adaptable and can be used for many genres and styles. It could be a major departure for the studio, but unlikely given its pedigree and given the number of employees it reportedly has, which isn't enough for a large-scale RPG production.
