The Talos Principle 2: Road to Elysium

When Talos Principle 2 was announced, I knew I was in. After all, I absolutely adored the original and would be there for a second helping... and then we got news of an expansion. I expected it to be like the extra content for the original and just be some puzzle packs, but I still wanted in. I'm glad I though so little of it to start, because it absolutely blindsided me on all points of just what was on offer here, actually expanding on the events of the main game as a PROPER DLC should. Step inside.

Now before we begin, this DLC is devided into 3 separate chapters with 3 separate storylines to cover. As such I have broken down this review to cover each in turn with links to each section on it's own, if you desire to skip to just the campaign you wish to see.

• Orpheus Ascending
• Isle of the Blessed
• Into The Abyss

The Talos Principle 2 (PC) Review

Way to start the new year with a bang! Ok ok, I was playing this through the end of 2023, but really how else can I put when I finished it? Now don't get me wrong, this did not come out of left field or anything. I absolutely loved the game it's a sequel to, but after my time so far playing with Unreal 5 (in the form of Starship Troopers) I had concerns about performance and general game quality this time around. Thankfully I was not only proven to be worrying over nothing, the game carried by the engine is arguably my favorite game of 2023, taking even the title from the CyberGoddess of Citidel Station's outing! Well done!
