Around the Principle of Talos 2, the event has grown mysteriously. Anyway, it's more mysterious than usual because it's a game with a mystery at its heart. A flurry of cryptic activity on various social media channels related to the game suggests that perhaps some kind of major announcement for expansion is underway.

Earlier today, the official Talos Principles 2Twitter account posted a short video clip depicting mazey, a grassy building overpass. The video says, "The old world is in decline, and a new world is being born. Now comes the age of miracles.The post was later tweeted by Jonas Kyratzes, one of the game's writers, saying, "Here we go...

So it seems likely that Croteam is cooking something new related to Talos Principle2. It's not entirely clear whether it's a full-on extension or some other major update, but I'd put my money on the former. Given the game's inexplicable combination with philosophy, there's probably a clever hidden message in the video, but honestly, I don't understand it

Nevertheless, the extension of Talos Principle2 will not be out of the character of the series. The original game received an add-on titled "Road to Gehenna" about 1 year after the launch of the vanilla game. The expansion to the Surprise drop is probably a bit early, as 6 months have passed since the release of the sequel, but the announcement of a release close to Christmas makes sense.

If there is one thing that applies to this confounding universe, then Talos Principle1 is worth a bit of DLC. The sequel was very well received when it launched on May 11 last year, earning an overwhelmingly positive rating on Steam out of more than 8,000 reviews. Our reviewer Dominic was equally enthralled by the combination of logical and existential conundrums, declaring that "it delivers in a way that sequels rarely do." The sequel also seems to be selling pretty well, with publisher Devolver Digital welcoming its performance at the end of the 1st month. If all this leads to playing more Talos principles, it will only be good in my book.
