Archetype Entertainment has released new details for Exodus, specifically for one of the companions joining The Traveler on their journey. Elise Charroux is a Sleeper who arrives in the Centauri Cluster after being awoken from cryosleep. Described as “Fearless, relentless, and loyal to a fault,” she takes to battle in a mech suit.
The suit features hefty firepower, from dual mini-guns to shoulder-mounted grenade launchers (with her Ultimate unleashing micro-missiles). Elise can serve as a tank for the squad, drawing attention from her team while insulting enemies.
Though often sarcastic, she’s faced hardship and navigates fragmented memories from her time on Earth. Elise is found in Borderline’s cantina, chatting up other mercenaries.
Exodus is in development for Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC, with a release date yet to be announced. Halo Infinite support studio Certain Affinity was recently confirmed as the lead co-developer, having worked on the project since 2022. Head here for more details.
