The Clockwork Revolution devs promise truly intelligent companions

Last month, XBOX took us back into the steampunk world of Clockwork Revolution. This narrative first-person role-playing game is expected to launch on XBOX Series X|S and PC next year.

In a post on X, Brian Fargo, president of inXile Entertainment, addressed a specific aspect of the game. He discussed the behavior of the AI-controlled companions who will accompany players on their epic journey. Some online users were concerned that these characters might be rather basic. That shouldn’t be the case.

"Been getting questions about the companion in Clockwork Revolution. Rest assured: I LOATHE companions that point out the obvious because they think players are dumb. Ours only speaks when it knows something you couldn't or has something genuinely funny to say. Kept rare on purpose. Hoping by the end you say, 'I wish she talked more, not less.'"
