The expansion pack, Road to Gehenna, will consist of four episodes with some of the most challenging puzzles yet. Road to Gehenna will be set in the same world, but will explore a new society with additional characters.
I'm very excited about this expansion, as The Talos Principle was one of my personal favorites from last year. It was also a popular entrant in our first annual GOTY awards, where it made the top 10 list.
According to the announcement from publisher Devolver Digital, the upcoming expansion will follow Uriel as he explores a hidden part of the simulation, and it will be filled with new characters and a society with its own history.
To me this mention of new characters seems to suggest that the expansion will take a slightly different turn from the base game, which was largely narrated through computer terminals. It would be a welcome direction, as it should offer a fresh and less lonely take on an already solid concept. And with Tom Jubert and Jonas Kyratzes still on board for the writing, I think Croteam already has a new winner on their hands.

QuoteIndependent developer Croteam and philosophical game label Devolver Digital have announced The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna, an upcoming expansion pack for the award-winning first-person puzzler The Talos Principle. Set in the world of The Talos Principle, Road to Gehenna follows the narrative of Uriel, Elohim’s messenger, as he explores a strange, hidden part of the simulation on a mission of mercy and redemption in an attempt to free the souls of the damned at all costs.
The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna will consist of four episodes that take experienced players through some of the most advanced and challenging puzzles yet. The Talos Principle writers Tom Jubert and Jonas Kyratzes have returned to pen the expansion and show players an entirely different side of Elohim’s world through a journey to Gehenna filled with new characters and a new society with its own history and philosophy.

Sweet. I very much enjoyed the base game and I'll surely get the expansion, once all 4 episodes are out.

Yeah, I will definitely pick this one up on release. Day one support is a good way to maximize profits from Linux sales.
