It's interesting how the Expanse started as an idea for an MMORPG, turned into a book, and now it's getting an actual RPG (not MMO hopefully).
Woah, is this true? Big if true.
It was also a tabletop RPG along the way, I think Leviathan Wakes is pretty much retelling of the campaign the writers ran with their friends.

If it's owlcat I'd totally be willing to assume it'll be a crpg, which would be a solid choice for the universe given its history
Edit: inspired by mass effect could totally be story wise, tbf a complex RPG system w/ mass effect 3/Andromeda combat would probably also be fantastic so we'll have to wait for more info.
I for one would love an Expanse MMO
An expanse MMO would be pretty cool, but it would need a completely different gameplay model from traditional MMOs.
