The Expanse: A Telltale Series First Episode Out on July 27

The Expanse: A Telltale Series

The first episode of The Expanse: A Telltale Series will be released on July 27th for PC (Epic Games Store), PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S|X, as announced today by publisher Telltale Games and developer Ad Hoc Studio.

The following four episodes will be released every two weeks. Pre-orders will go live on June 1st for both the Standard and Deluxe Editions, priced at $39.99 and $44.99, respectively. The latter edition also includes yet-to-be-announced post-launch DLC, while all pre-orders on the Epic Games Store and PlayStation come with 24-hour exclusive early access.

The events of The Expanse: A Telltale Series take place before the events narrated in the six-season acclaimed Prime Video TV series adaptation. Camina Drummer, played by Cara Gee just like in the series, is a young XO of a scavenging crew looking for a treasure hidden somewhere around The Belt.

Aboard the Artemis, Camina will have to contend with a dangerous mutiny, deal with an explosive mix of personalities, and ultimately make decisions that will affect the entire crew in classic Telltale Games style.

The Expanse: A Telltale Series also promises the 'largest and most immersive' exploration' in a Telltale title yet, allowing players to scour various locations, including the navigation of dangerous shipwrecks in zero-G environment with thrusters and mag boots. Of course, Camina and her crew will eventually have to fight space pirates, too.

This is the first game made by Telltale Games, revived in August 2019 by LCG Entertainment after the original company went bankrupt. The studio is also working on the long-awaited The Wolf Among Us 2, which is currently scheduled to launch at some point in 2024.
