Clockwork Revolution Gains Momentum with New VFX Lead and Promising Developments

Recent developments regarding Clockwork Revolution have generated renewed interest, particularly with the addition of a seasoned VFX artist to the team. This game, crafted by the talented folks at Inxile Entertainment, was especially lacking in the latest Xbox Games Showcase. We were first introduced to it during last year's showcase, yet news around it has been relatively scarce since then.

Murmurs about the game's progress have included updates about various former members of Volition, known for the Saints Row series, who established a new studio called Shapeshifter Games. This group has intervened to share their insights with the project. Now, insider information shared by Klobrille suggests that there could be an exciting boost to the game's visuals. Jeff A. Johnson has joined Inxile Entertainment, and he expressed his enthusiasm for contributing to a project that's already making waves within Xbox Game Studios.

On his LinkedIn profile, Johnson mentioned his excitement about joining a team with a strong legacy in RPGs, including notable series like “The Bard's Tale” and “Wastelands.” He specifically highlighted Clockwork Revolution, describing it as an action-packed, time-tripping experience set in a steampunk universe.

With a background in graphic design on high-profile names such as Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, Gears Tactics, Marvel's Spider-Man 2, and the forthcoming Marvel's Wolverine, Johnson now takes on the crucial role of VFX Lead for Clockwork Revolution. This addition could indicate promising visual advancements for the game, which is anticipated for release sometime in late 2025 or potentially 2026.
