Publisher Devolver Digital and developer Croteam have announced The Talos Principle II is getting a big expansion titled “Road to Elysium.”

The new expansion is launching for all platforms on June 14th and as it’s a proper expansion, it will cost $14.99.

Here’s a rundown on the new content, plus a trailer:

This three-part coda will reunite you with beloved characters and put your puzzle-solving skills to the test through a series of thought-provoking new stories.

Following the events of The Talos Principle II, Road to Elysium continues the evolution of the robot world, providing you with a new perspective on some of the key moments from 1K’s journey, and challenging you with puzzles built around both new and pre-existing mechanics.

The expansion is made up of three chapters, each of which has its own distinctive look and feel.

  • Orpheus Ascending – Explore the philosophy of love, death and resurrection through the story of Hypatia and Sarabhai. Return to the role of 1K to enter Sarabhai’s mind and retrieve the shattered fragments of her personality. Set in a gorgeous environment inspired by Ancient Egypt, this chapter challenges you to solve a series of complex laser-based puzzles in unconventional ways.
  • Isle of the Blessed – Hang out with Yaqut and Miranda as they join Cornelius and Athena on a puzzle-driven adventure set on a stunning Caribbean island. Challenge yourself with a wide variety of never-before-seen puzzles using familiar tools, culminating in the Hexahedron, a large continuous puzzle cluster set in a mysterious tower.
  • Into the Abyss – Return to one of the most dramatic moments from The Talos Principle II and find out what happened to Byron when he was trapped in the Megastructure. Taking place on a series of floating islands, this chapter takes you on a trippy journey through a glitchy dream world full of extremely difficult puzzles that will make even veteran players’ heads spin.

The Talos Principle II has been available since November 2023 for Windows (via Steam), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. Check out our review!
