'The Talos Principle: Road to Ghenna' promises more robotic philosophy
Haunting. Creative. Beautiful. Intelligent--these are the words we used to describe The Talos Principle and its narrative-driven first-person puzzles. It's a charming, well-written game that gently convinces the player to question the very nature of consciousness. If you liked it, you're about to get more of it--Croteam and Devolver Digital recently announced The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna, the game's first episodic expansion pack.
Gehnna promises to guide players into new, unseen areas of Uriel's simulation--introducing new characters, in a new society with loads of history and philosophical challenges. It sounds creepy and intriguing, exactly what you'd want after playing the original game.
The expansion will be available on Steam on July 23rd--but pricing isn't clear. "The original plan was to divide The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna into over 100 different $5 DLCs," teases the game's official press release in the guise of Devolver Digital's fictional CFO, Fork Parker. "But the Devolver Digital DLC Ethics Department advised against it. That particular department has subsequently been disbanded." Good, I guess?
