  "account": "In the upcoming game Exodus, sex scenes are described as \"very tastefully done\" by the game's developers, Chris King and Drew Karpyshyn. Players will be able to pursue romances with the game's various companions, but these relationships will be \"messy and complicated,\" according to Karpyshyn. The sex scenes in Exodus are expected to be similar to those found in Mass Effect, with brief, non-explicit encounters. Some companions, like the octopus Salt, are off-limits for romantic interactions due to her disapproval of humans and her unique abilities. The other main companions players can potentially romance are Elise Charroux, Kara Voss, and Suliman. Exodus, developed by the team behind BioWare's Mass Effect, will be released on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S on April 7, 2027.",
