If you want to learn more about the various creatures and species coming to Exodus with the game's release, Matthew McConaughey has what you need.
The actor has been narrating several YouTube videos for the sci-fi role-playing game, offering a look into his world. The videos are made to highlight the “darker” side of Exodus, says developer Archetype.
Videos showcasing the creatures of Exodus include a detailed look at pangolin-like creatures known as Arkavir, and others detailing the Awakened Ravens. Lastly, there's one for the woke bears.

The Arkavir are described as “a race of monstrous and highly adaptable creatures created by the Celestials to be a disposable workforce.” And you might be wondering who the Celestials are. These are a “diverse” range of alien peoples, who are humanity's “greatest enemy.”
The Ravens, meanwhile, were “designed to solve problems,” McConaughey says.
As for those bears, all they care about is muscle. While they once helped procure medical supplies, they are now often used for military purposes.
Exodus was first announced at The Game Awards late last year, revealing that McConaughey would be making his video game debut. We don't have a release date yet.
As for the developer, Archetype Entertainment, as you may remember, is a Wizards of the Coast video game studio. It is directed by two former BioWare veterans.
