The Talos Principle 2is getting its first expansion for PlayStation 5 , Xbox Series X / S , and microcomputer on June 14 in the form ofRoad to Elysium . The $ 20 DLC is described as a three - part finale , which will give player three new areas to pick up across distinguishable chapters .
resign in November 2023,The Talos Principle 2is a sequel to a literary genre - defining 2014puzzle gamethat took heavy inspiration fromPortal . The sequel built on its predecessor with more complex teaser chambers , unexampled puppet , and a robust story about a colony of androids dealing with philosophic questions about their world . Road to Elysiumwill proceed all of that by tot more puzzler and chronicle .
The DLC is dissever up into three distinct parts : Orpheus Ascending , Isle of the Blessed , and Into The Abyss . Each one take players to a novel themed area with a collection of new puzzle chamber to solve . Orpheus Ascending , for instance , takes players through an Egypt - inspired place setting with puzzles built around lasers .
out front of its proclamation at today’sDevolver Direct , I last hands on with the novel Isle of the Blessed chapter . This section take player to a tropical island broken up into three set of puzzle . I ’d solve one chain of eight mystifier during my playthrough , which would practice familiar tools like RGB converter and sctivators . The handful of problems I figure out fight my brain to its limits , with puzzles that had me carefully redirecting light-headed beams and moving items around a magnetized wall in the right order .
That is to say , it ’s exactly what you ’d bear fromThe Talos Principle 2 .
The complex body part of the new islands is very to the main game ’s menses . I solve eight sleeping room , create a bridge using tetromino pieces , and activate a lighthouse . Collectible traditional knowledge is strewn about that get deep into the game ’s philosophic musings . One audio transcription I found cut into into a debate about whether or not art should have meaning . It looks like each chapter will deal with its own questions like that , while building on the primary game ’s stop and answering more dubiousness about the mysterious Megastructure .
Road to Elysiumseems like a amazingly expectant DLC . base on how much I still had left to do at the end of my demo , Isle of the Blessed seems like it would take five hour to complete — and that ’s just one third of the new capacity . That should be enough to keep fans of the serial occupied with more mentality - busters .
