The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna, the sweeping expansion to our award-winning first-person puzzler The Talos Principle, will launch July 23 on PC, Mac, and Linux via Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/app/358470).

Expansion will consist of four episodes that take experienced players through some of the most advanced and challenging puzzles yet. Players will return to a strange, hidden part of the simulation as Uriel, Elohim’s messenger, and attempt to free the souls trapped in this mysterious place.

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.

It took a lot of effort to make expansion worthy of the original game, so we really hope you are gonna like it! 😉 May the words be with you!

We congratulate the winners! Expect to be contacted soon to your Steam profile to receive your prizes.

Big thanks to all who participated! We are very thankful for your participation in our community!

No further milestones are announced yet, but that doesn’t mean we won’t do giveaways any more. So, as always, if you like you can help us grow in many ways, for example by inviting your friends to The Talos Principle official Steam group, by sharing group announcements, posting about game and/or giveaway in activity feed, etc.

Spread the Words! The Words are everything!

We are proud to announce that The Talos Principle is now available on Google Play store on selected Nvidia powered devices – most notably new SHIELD Android TV console, SHIELD tablet and Google Nexus 9. The game is available as six episodes ($4.99 each) with an option to purchase the first episode for $4.99 and then the remaining five episodes at once with a $14.99 Season Pass.

New and intuitive touch controls really make Talos shine on touchpad devices – and if you are lucky to posses one of the above devices, you can be the judge!

One of our most beloved artists Tom J. Manning once again surprised us with this awesome wallpaper! Download now and eternalize your desktop!

We know it’s 1st of April, but you really are gonna laugh out of pure joy when we tell you that Talos Principle is 50% off (starting today till 6th of April)! But that’s not all…. we got some help from our longtime actor John J. Dick who thought Talos needed a change in attitude, so he recorded and replaced all Elohim’s quotes with his own, in an attempt to make game ‘even more serious’.

“I knew this was eventually bound to happen” said Sam “Serious” Stone when asked to comment on upcoming DLC. “It all started when they took assets from Egypt and reused them again in this new puzzler that delayed my fourth game in the series. But hell, I sound so good that all is forgiven.”

The new Serious pack also includes a new Serious player model for use in the game. The Talos Principle: Serious DLC is available on Steam for free until Tuesday, April 7th and then will be available for purchase for $2.99.

We are very excited to announce our upcoming DLC pack for The Talos Principle called Road to Gehenna. In this new story set in the world of The Talos Principle, you will take on the part of Uriel, Elohim’s messenger, as he explores a strange, hidden part of the simulation on a mission of mercy and redemption. You must free the souls of the damned – even if it requires a sacrifice.

The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna will consist of 4 episodes, and will feature hard puzzles for experienced players who climbed the Tower and were left longing for more. Our writers, Tom Jubert and Jonas Kyratzes, have taken on the task of showing you an entirely different side of Elohim’s world. Your journey to Gehenna will not only introduce you to new characters, but to a whole new society with its own history and philosophy. We tried to press Jonas and Tom for more concrete details, but all we got were obscure philosophical statements about authenticity and the quantifying nature of the internet. 

The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna is coming to Steam this spring while The Talos Principle and the expansion pack will launch on PlayStation 4 and the Nvidia Shield platforms later this year.

Good news everybody! We’ll be attending this year’s GDC in San Francisco, where Talos Principle will be featured at IGF pavilion in Expo hall as one of the IGF finalists. As you probably know, we were nominated for 3 IGF awards – Seamus McNally Grand Prize, Excellence in Design and Audience Award – and we’d like to thank jury for this nice recognition of our hard work.

After GDC, we’ll head to PAX East in Boston, where you can find us at Devolver Digital’s booth as well as on Alienware stand. You can ask us questions, grab some t-shirts and goodies, play Talos, or just come to say hi – you are all welcome! And check this video below 🙂

See you soon, and thanks for your support!

Thanks for joining our evergrowing Steam community, we now passed 81.000 members! Our way to say thanks is to announce surprise game that we will be giving to some of the lucky members.

That is one old school shooter done properly on so many levels. And no game executed first person melee combat as good as Shadow Warrior did with mythical katana. Just wielding it through opposing flesh makes this game worth playing. But there is so much more, humor, upgradeable weapons and unmistakeable old school gameplay. Just try it out!

We will award 10 Steam keys for this thrilling game to some of you when our Steam community grows to 100.000 members. So join our community, help us grow and enjoy rewards!
To make this deal sweeter, we will give you 200 keys for various Serious Sam games! It’s a heaven for old school shooter fans!
